Had a pic line put in today. That wasn't a problem. The issue is that they are going to start chemo early. Next Friday to be exact, which gives me just over a week of normal life before I'll feel as sick as a dog. Also, they're going to give me the same doseage and I'm going to have 3 cycles again! When I spoke to the docs last they promised 2 cycles and a much lower dose.
Oh well, I supppose it's all to make me better, but it is going to be soooooo hard this time round as I have to deal with the side effects of my surgery as well.
Weight : 10 stone
Sickness Level : 3/10

Hearing your dilema reminds me of an awful program with a very bad jingle 'Dance you cares away - worries for another day - let the music play - down at Fraggle Rock' - Obviously none of these people had a clue about paying taxes, bills and chemo therapy.....to think there is a dance that let's you forget - awesome!
