since being on zoladex cry at the slightest thing. hope everyone's ok.
Hello Dj manic
That's the hard bit - the daily Radiotherapy fractions are a doddle - finding a parking space is the hard part!!
I came off Ht last December but I can still cry for England, so you are not alone.
I wish you well with your Radiotherapy when it comes round.
Best wishes - Brian.

I am a Macmillan volunteer.
When I joined the RA in 1968 most of the recruits headed into Woolwich to get a tattoo, but me being a big scaredy chickened out.
When I went for my planning scan, the only thing I got told was to drink another 600mlts of water, your bladder is bigger than most others, so waited half an hour and everything done.
Where's my tattoos?
It had only taken me 57 years to pluck up courage to get tattooed.
We don't do tattoos anymore, you are lined up with laser beams, exit stage right totally destroyed.
I so wanted to show my missus how brave I'd been getting tattooed.
