Hi Been a bit grumpy today with my partner. Think I am just a little anxious about my first treatment tomorrow. Also a little emotional. I suppose it is to be expected! Can't wait for the 25 sessions to be over. I think the possible side effects worry me most and parking at the hospital! I keep thinking this time next week I will be 20% done and by the new year - which is not far away I will be nearly half way through! I think it's the fear of the unknown but when I was getting my planning scan and tattoo dots they did say it wouldn't be much different. Got a new tablet dedicated to music audio books for the inevitable hospital waits. Spent yesterday downloading - also included some relaxing meditations and meditation music. It's the fear of the unknown. I find it reassuring in a way it's not the very abnormal polyp that is worrying me at the moment but the treatment!
Thanks I am sure it will. I am actually looking forward to a quiet Christmas as the ones no children we usually end up rushing about visiting everyone else. I am just a bit of a worrier - like thing I know. I am sure by the middle of the week I will be a pro! ,
