27 February 2021 – Udder cream

27th Feb 202117th Mar 2021 / bryony82 / Leave a comment

Today I woke refreshed, and had the joys of spring, it was a sunny weekend, I have no more Oxalyplatin and I felt a little bounce in my step.  I needed some food and thought why drive – it’s only about 1.5 miles (3 mile return) to the shop – DICK! Honestly, when do I … Continue reading 27 February 2021 – Udder cream

26 February 2021 – Rants, Rage and Elation

26th Feb 202117th Mar 2021 / bryony82 / Leave a comment

Ok – this probably isn’t the right time to post, but I just wanted to note that I’m in a real piss today. My feet are now impacted and I’m feeling slightly unsteady, I’m bruising everywhere, my bloody fingers are peeling and I just struggled with the washing again due to pain in my fingers. … Continue reading 26 February 2021 – Rants, Rage and Elation

07 January 2020 – pre-chemo call

7th Jan 202117th Mar 2021 / bryony82 / Leave a comment

The day before chemo you always get a call from the Oncology Nurse. Most of the time you just discuss how you were feeling and what the symptoms were. You also get to discuss what drugs you need like Loperamide (anti diarrhoea), Lorezepam (to take the edge off my anxiety pre-chemo) and Oramorph. I usually … Continue reading 07 January 2020 – pre-chemo call

10 December 2020 – Chemo, ROUND 4

10th Dec 202017th Mar 2021 / bryony82 / Leave a comment

I went into this round of chemo a little cocky, the last one was a breeze and I had a clear idea of what my symptoms were; even if the severity was mixed most of the symptoms remained relatively consistent. For some reason this time they went straight back into the large vein on the … Continue reading 10 December 2020 – Chemo, ROUND 4

08 October 2020 – Chemo, ROUND 1

8th Oct 202017th Mar 2021 / bryony82 / Leave a comment

I woke that morning with confidence, showered and dressed. A friend of mine bought me this epic t-shirt when I was diagnosed – it says ‘Life’s a bitch and so am I’ and I defiantly promised I would wear it to chemo. But when it came to it, I wasn’t feeling quite so brave. Maybe … Continue reading 08 October 2020 – Chemo, ROUND 1

22 March 2020 – My symptoms

22nd Mar 202017th Mar 2021 / bryony82 / Leave a comment

The year 2020 for my family started off badly, without the shitter that is Covid-19. My dad was poorly with a life threatening blood clot on the heart and followed by  an infection in his metal knee that just wouldn’t shift. He nearly died twice, and in the middle of this, I was preparing to … Continue reading 22 March 2020 – My symptoms
