I am back Mood
Tuesday, August 18, 2009

Well so much has happened in the last month. I finished the six cycles, then the doctor suggested two more with just Taxol. The reason is that the one other person that he has treated did the same process and is five years cancer free. So I want that for myself. I have one more of the two cycles. I do them weekly, which I prefer.

 

The weekly treatments are not so bad. I do not have two weeks of good health, but the side effects are not too bad weekly. My hair is coming back, no muscle joint pain, and nasuea is not too bad if I drink even more water. The only thing is that I have more fatigue, but I just take a nap every day.

 

I sorry to all of for not keeping intouch. I was so depressed that I did not do anything. I sleeped as much as I could and cried all the time. I finally asked for help and I am on medication, which is a wonderful thing. I started talking to someone about my feeling and started taking a class Pathways called Renewing Life. It really is helping me deal with the stress a some of the emotions I have.

    Huge well done for getting through it and for accessing help when you needed it. Don't worry about us here.. we are here when you want us to be and understand how these things go. Main thing is you are on the up and seem to have sorted all sorts of things out for yourself. Best of everything with the rest of your treatment.. soon you will be recovering and feeling better and better.. big hug to you.. xxx
