Chemo Over
Ive finished the chemo thanks for all the advice ladies.I had the chemo on a Friday and found Mon to Thurs after that my bad days but then I picked up.I found rice crispies and ice cold milk a life saver as I didnt feel like eating much for the four bad days.I never bought mouth wash just gargled with salt water after eating. Any weight loss after the first week was soon put back on by the next session.So its great to be finished I have to go on Tamoxifen in a few weeks so thats it for now.Looking forward to the hair growing back.Off to England tomorrow to see my 82 yr old Mum it will be a lovely suprise for her shes as fit as a flee and sharp as a razor.
Looking forward to getting back to work part time and riding horses again.
Good Luck ceedee
Well done Ceedee - it certainly is a great feeling and enjoy it.
The world is your oyster again and I hope you enjoy your holiday.
Get lots of sunshine and fresh air and enjoy !!!

Hey CeeDee,
CONGRATULATIONS! Thats great news. Its a wonderful feeling isn't it? I still remember skipping in for my last chemo session, I never enjoyed getting chemo so much. Even asked the nurses if there was going to be a cake!
Don't push yourself too quickly to get back to 'normal'. Sometimes chemo side effects continue for months after treatment ends. I found I creaked like an old woman with aches and pains from the Taxol for quite a while after mine.
Be proud of yourself. Getting through it all is a major achievment!
Well done.
Hugs,
Flo.
