Day 11

The biting pain is back and with a vengeance. It woke me up this morning - I sleep on my right side so I woke up feeling very uncomfortable. In true me style though I am trying not to take pain killers - for two reasons. I like to feel the pain - it shows that something has changed since the chemo, if the ache was still the same then it would imply nothing had happened but the fact that I am having the same pain as I had in my breast last year.. that feels fantastic. Also, I don't want to take too many painkillers as I don't want to build a up a resistance to them. I will take them at bedtime tonight if I need to in order that I can get more sleep than I did last night. In myself I feel fine, if tired. Apparently I look better, more colour in my cheeks than last week. Let's just see how I go.
