Not a good start to the day - my appointment was at 1130 and I finally got seen at 1300! I was a patient patient tho.
As I have said previously, I want a complete chemo break, due to the way I feel. BUT I have also been having symptoms which make me suspect I have progression of disease. The oncologist agreed to do CT Scan, she did bloods and I have to go back in a month to discuss - hopefully will have had scan by then.
She said my exhaustion could be caused by the cardiac drug they are trying to titrate up, apparently its quite a nasty one so i have to reduce the dose of that.
Feel shattered as usual today, having to sit that long at clinic was a nightmare.
I am off out for tea tonight before going to theatre with Suzie and J to see Blood Brothers - again.
When I went to bed last night, I did a compassion practice and then just broke down - lots of big sobs and tears, but strangely felt a bit calmer after.
More later
Thanks for reading

This is my story, as a 42 year old, young woman, living with terminal breast cancer.
Hey Fi. You're certainly having a rough time of it at the moment. If you feel up to it and fancy a chat with someone random over a coffee or a glass of wine, let me know. On leave w/c 8 November so plenty of free time. xx
