I'm sure she'll be along soon, dongle permitting, but her bloods were OK so the nasty stuff was permitted. The steroids have ensured she didn't sleep but she's managed some breakfast which was more duty than pleasure. She is not peeling - yet.

Well done, May. You are getting there and we are all right there with you. ((()))

    I was given a fridge magnet about the do's and dont't with this type of chemo. I've just looked at it. A few new ones....soak your hands/feet in basins of cold water often......Don't have hot drinks...Don't kneel down...well the 2nd one is impossible as I wouldn't be able to get up.
    I'm suffering with stomach and back pain at the moment and nothing is touching it. Maybe the stomach pain is because I've been having hot drinks.or maybe not.No sickness so one good thing at the moment.
    Onwards and upwards. Still having problems with this computer. I'll ring them on Monday to get some-one I can understand. Just keeps disconnecting for no reason.
    Take care everyone...be back when I can. Love May xx

    It's good that you're not feeling sick but I hope the pain won't last.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    I hope the stomach pains are easing up, May. That's the last thing you need on top of all the rest.

    'No hot drinks' would be a killer for me. I swig tea morning, noon and night. Mind you, that could be taken as licence to sup as much whisky as required :wink:

    Take care now. I'm thinking of you very much. ((()))

    Thinking of you too. Big hugs, love LV....PS do hot drinks that have been allowed to cool quite a bit count?

    May’s update
    Her computer is playing up again. When she puts a post up on the forum it just disappears. However, they’re coming out tomorrow afternoon, hopefully to fix it.

    Her fingers are peeling again and are sore. Her feet are not too bad - yet :roll:

    There is no chance she can do without a hot drink :o

    She has no sickness this time, which is good :D

    The steroids finish today so she can start the whisky tomorrow night if she can't sleep :D

    Get in there, May :lol:
