  • Hi Ninsi

    Welcome to to the forum and to this thread and I am sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer.  The waiting to find out your results and treatment plan is the worst thing about this cancer but things should start to be a lot clearer once you know your results and treatment plan.

    Wishing you the best of luck with your meeting on Thursday and with whatever treatment your team puts you on.

    Best wishes

  • I’ve just read the last few pages, so much news, I find it hard to keep up.

    Has your chemo started yet  ? I hope you are ok x

    Welcome    although I am so sorry you find yourself here, I hope your appointment this week goes as well as it can x

    Sorry to hear how poorly you’ve been  I hope they can give you anti sickness meds that better suit you x

    I had my double appointment with my GP yesterday and he has written to my consultant to ask her to see me again re my various pains. I found it a really hard appointment as I go through life avoiding things and coping, so I find advocating for myself really difficult. But I’d just like to know that the pains are not sinister …

    Very cold here in this old house, am off to light the wood burner. Hugs to you all xx

  • Hi raedd

    I started chemo yesterday.  It went well and so far I don't have any side effects.  Long may that continue. xx

  • penicillin had an infection, the penicillin shouldnt interact or make it worse, but get your pressure checked. i had a round where i felti needed to lay on the shower floor too. ask for better anti nausea pills, and eay what you can, some eat potatoes, avoid favourites and be sure to drink plenty of water as you can get dehydrated quickly hugs

  • Thanks raedd. Hope you get help with your pains. It os freezing here- de icer this morning! 

  • Oh  how horrible feeling so faint. Well done for managing not to fall and hit your head in the shower. I guess it is not surprising you caught an infection when your  body's defences (I had to type that several times as it kept changing body to odyssey which is rather aovely word - but I digress)are  lowered by the chemo. With any luck your body will be more prepared for it second time around. Sending big hugs xx

  • So sorry to read that some of you are having rough times, please do talk to your BCN about a better antinausea med system,  as there are quite a few drugs to try. 

    Night night Fruit Loops, sleep well and stay safe, plenty of sleepy fairy dust for all who wish

  • Snoopy is correct, wish i could get there. Slept 11-2, tablet, then slept 3:30-6:30. Which is better. 6 hours is 3 times what i've been getting. Able to work and focus today.
