Day Seventy Four

Managing the nausea to perfection now. If I start to feel sick, I have two of my tablets then a huge feed, I don't even have any indigestion at the moment which I usually get with the steroids. There are now visible signs that my body is responding to the treatment - my left nipple, which had virtually sunk right into my breast, the biggest give away that all was not right, is now back and standing proud! My hair is growing back already, my bald patches have stubble - hope you like brunette this time guys! I did some research this morning about stopping menstruating, what happens with chemo. One report says that because I am under 35, even if I do stop, the chances are that I will restart and not be infertile. Ok, so I don't want any more kids, but I also don't want early onset osteoporosis which can occur with early menopause. I have not stopped my periods, in fact, I am back to normal. If these are signs that my body is healing, I am feeling pretty proud of my body right now, feeling quite invincible! I hope this is my body getting back to normal. I am worried about the MRI. Up until now, all the signs have been outward ones. I hope the inside one are just as good. The chemo is not knocking me at all hardly, which is another worry. I feel as if I should be being as sick as a dog right now, but if I think logically, I am young, horribly healthy and I am eating well and taking lots of vitamins, perhaps I am just looking after myself properly. I am feeling strong and ready to finish this off.
