I too have a drip first with steroids & antisickness.. Don't feel cheated Txl47 I only have antisickness pills for 3 days too ️ But they seem to work so far..
I've got my fingers crossed you don't get any more side effects.
My husband says we are awesome people
Only 2 more to go. That's great.. My boob has just about gone back to normal now. It's been swollen for weeks after all the biopsies and markers.. It still makes me shudder when I think about them..
And I'm like you, I only want to know what's relevant to me. So I don't Google anything, too many horror stories !
Yep I have a heart scan coming up, My consultant said it's a precaution..
Best wishes
Hiya, I hope everybody is doing well. I'm feeling physically back to normal now, suppose to have my echocardiogram before my next lot of chemo (21st April) I'm still waiting for the hospital to send an appointment out but with it being bank holiday I'm not hopeful I will get one in time. Due a pcr on Monday then I have to isolate for 3 days, so looks like no echo for me till after I start the chemo. (Fed up of all this covid stuff now). Anyway, I hope you all have a fantastic day, sun is shinning yay. xx
Morning Tizzy. Glad you are feeling well. I am doing good too just ready for 3rd Chemo on Tuesday. My girls are coming up today for a walk as its a nice day although no sun up here yet.
You are right about Covid but still warm of catching it so I ask everyone who comes here to do a LFT just to be on the safe side.
Enjoy your Easter weekend and good luck for 21st. Is that your 5th then.
