after browsing forums on the Breast Cancer Care website and a bit of retail therapy!
In the Breast Cancer Care community, the ladies who are on Xeloda (the short name of the drug that my health care team want me to start), provide a valuable resource. I am reading how they manange the side effects and the different treatments being used. Reassuringly there is a lady who has been on this drug for 8 years and whilst I know everyone reacts differently, that turned it around for me!
I have had my appointments through, Oncology 6th Dec and 20th Dec for my referral to have the sigmoid skin tag removed.
Since I got back from the Penny Brohn centre, I drink loads of fruit tea and hot water with lemon. I am now also drinking Dandelion tea and taking a RDA of Milk Thistle. This will help my liver functions that are being impacted by toxins from drugs, food and drink.
In my second week of detox I have lost 2lb in weight and I am feeling quite bright and positive all things considered and long may it continue! Birthday binges and Christmas coming up oh well it's all about getting the right balance :-)
Have a good weekend everyone xxx
Hi and Welcome to Sue's World. I started this blog to keep family and friends informed after being diagnosed with Breast Cancer in February 2009. In March 2011 I was diagnosed with Secondary Breast Cancer. This is about my treatment and how things are going, but mainly to keep them amused with the silly little things that happen to me!!! Read on with interest and please feel free to make any comments, serious or fun, it all helps!!! Sue xx
Have a great weekend as well Sue ♥♥ xx
