Well today was my last chemo cycle , it was touch and go as to whether it would go ahead because I had covid and was worried it might off affected my white blood cells , so until I got to my appointmnt I still had no idea, but thankgod it went ahead , its still hasn't sunk in that was my last one ,  also my picc line came out whoop whoop , just need to recover from this cycle and then have to face 4weeks of radiotherapy,  but hopefully that will be a bit easier than the chemo ,  I wish everyone on here all the very best with all your treatments   we are so strong we will get there xxx

  • O well done you! I finished chemo in May then had more deep nodes removed but found only 1that tested positive. Am just waiting now for date to meet RT consultants appointment. This has been a real rollercoaster  and praise everyone that is on this journey.

  • Congratulations, well done! It’s a big deal, only those who’ve gone through it (or had loved ones go through it), can truly understand the relief and the sense of achievement! All the best to you  xxxx

  • Well done you good news to get it behind you. I had surgery in Nov 21 started chemo in Dec 21 which finished in April 22.Then radiotherapy in May/June. Feels good to complete treatment but left me feeling a bit lost after 9 months of thinking about nothing else other than getting through it.

    Hope you soon complete your journey and stay healthy. Lots of love to all those fighting on x

  • I could not agree more Janemb. I almost feel more anxious now as nearing the light at the end of the tunnel! Going back to normality, very strange.

  • Yes, the only thing is life is not quite the normal it used to be. I try to stay positive and think all behind me but occasionally my mind thinks differently. We will get there take care x

  • Totally agree with you about being lost because all I have done is count down the weeks to each chemo cycle , I would have the district nurse come in every wed to flush and redress my picc line so that was a week ticked of then every 3 weeks chemo , so not having these days is going to be really strange,  its almost what am I going to do now , until I hear when my radiotherapy will start xx
