Hey lovelies, I’m going to have a bit of a pity party! I finished radiotherapy about ten days ago, previously had lumpectomy for two tumours then a re excision, and I have been taking Letrozole for about four weeks. Yesterday and today are the worst I have felt. My head hurts, I feel so very nauseous despite anti nausea meds. I can barely keep my eyes open, and I seem to be able to only move at a snails pace. Oh and my poorly boob hurts, is very sensitive and hot. I’m so sorry to moan, but I know you will understand. Take care of yourselves please. 

  • Hello and don't worry about the pity party.  It's such early days.  I felt washed out for months after radiotherapy.  Skin hot - try keeping aloe Vera in fridge and apply regularly.  You should notice hotness reducing about a month after RT.  Listen to your body.  Drink plenty, rest plenty.  It's been under attack for months so needs to recover.  Mentally too you need to be kind to yourself xx
