Hello all - just had first chemo

I'll let you know about the next phase....my last dovetail tomorrow. Surgery 4 to 6 weeks time...then bone treatments radiation etc. I'm a few months ahead of you. Stay strong keep drinking and eating and taking each day at a time . Laypeople help you...x

Great news cosmossy 

next step surgery , hope you got a good response to the chemo / drugs 

That is just the best timing isn't it. You're inspirational and hope you sail through your last bout. Can you imagine after tomorrow ...no more treatment..how good is that? Just the best feeling  so happy for you. 

Best of luck tomorrow!

Im due my first today, but yesterday I woke up with a bit of a cough and then runny nose last night. I don't know if its the flowers in the house or a head cold. Trying to get through to the emergency team bit no answer for some advice. No doubt it will be cancelled today..xx

Best of luck Cosmossy and have a Happy Christmas

Hi Deb3112 - yes loved the gift box etc from Little Lifts such a good idea - very thoughtful - good little charity.  Rang The Big C yesterday and had a chat they are very helpful too.  Good to hear you have been walking a little - me too yesterday down by the River.  Dreadful thrush issue which hopefully now being sorted by Nystatin drops and Fluconazole - fingers crossed as was starting to worry about eating etc. Christmas decorations going up this weekend - keep going x

hi Deeds , I had a runny nose for a week before it actually was sore on day , plus I woke up with a bloodshot eye Ffs ♀️  

it wasn’t cancelled , good luck with yours 

I’ve got a terrible rash/ itch all over now , reaction to injections? From day 5 in my case

I’ve just ordered some moo goo from their site in U.K. , as I’m slapping it all over , I like it  a lot , very soothing , and cheaper than the creams etc I found on a breast cancer ( private company/ set up) online 

Well I got a call back from Triage Nurse, my appointment is cancelled til next Thursday,  on my way for covid test, but I know its a head cold..My husband wants me to ask them if they could delay it til the week after Xmas in case I'm sick  . I'm hoping if i get it ill be ok for a couple of days if I was to be sick  I'd rather get it started..xx

Oh dear Deeds, it's so hard when u are all geared up in your head to plough thru and now 5his setback. I would take a LFT firstly. Just to rule it out. From my past experience before my op, I also had such terrible cough in run up to surgery and I took a 20quid Manuka honey round the clock, finished it in 3 days and had g8 results to reduce the cough by a lot!

I do hope you can get thru the helpline! Big hugs to u, hold on to positive thoughts luvy
