Bit fed up

Hi Lizzie. Remember that none of this is anything to do with your cancer. That bit is done and dusted. It’s horrid to have to plough through covid if you’re one of those who react badly. It’s just bad luck. 
Recovery is often two steps forward and one back, sometimes even more than one. I just put my head down and tried harder. I do know how soul destroying it feels though. 
Have another read of Peter Harvey’s article. Some of it might help

Hi Lizzie this is just the place to have a safe moaning session.  We all get a bit down occasionally.  I echo Dani's comments and the latest round of Covid can really take it out of you for some time despite vaccinations.  I was out for a few days and it was about 6 weeks before I could walk up a hill without stopping.  You are not alone with the cold sore getting infected as my wife had that in September.  Like you a course of antibiotics sorted it.  I suppose what I am saying is that we all naturally worry post treatment that something is going wrong and that a simple, non connected, issue can trigger those fears.  I have a few of those!  We do get better at manging these emotions and as they say, "time is the great healer!"  Hold onto the good bit from the consultant and try to concentrate of enjoying life which the vast majority of us can do post treatment.

Thankyou   Lizzie

Its only natural to feel fed up with everything that is going on. Its a bit like the twilight zone . Good Luck 

HimLizzie sorry am late to the post we’re away at the moment. It’s ok to feel down and fed up but look how far you’ve come since though dark days of diagnosis. Just take things easy for a while your  body will tell you when it’s time to get out and about again my oncologist b said he was going to cure me but also said he was going  to take a year out of my life he did both. You’ll manage yiur life we all do minor adjustments might need to be made, but you will get there. 
Rant away that’s what the forums here for as well as advise.
