I also think it's important to send your body messages that you are strong and healing. Visualization (meditation) and any type of exercise (even if it's just a walk around the block) can be powerful messages for your body to hear. "I'm active, I'm healing". My best to you, Jessica.

This afternoon I'm suppose to start my chemo treatments...(joy joy) and will posting less and less i'm sure. The cancer in my spine has returned and it's been hell on me lately. So anyways.. I'll be back to raising hell when my body is done raising hell with me... hugsss and kisses.... yall have fun and be good.. or at least be good at what you do..... Jessica I wish you luck on your next step. I found out on August 24th, 2006 that I had breast cancer. I have been through a biopsy and lumpectomy. Right around Thanksgiving (USA) time I will be starting radiation. May your journey be a quick one and painless as possible. [sm=flying.gif]

My best to you, Jessica. with my injuries it helped to read everything i could on the topic. to also talk to others w same injury. drs say very little as they dont want sued, etc. there are some good sites on the web that can inform.

KatyLied -> RE: Chemo Starts Today.... ughhhhh (10/15/2006 7:18:46 AM)
There are some great yahoo (message board) groups as well. When I was going through some surgery I joined one and received some great advice, I was clueless about surgery and how long it takes to recover and feared the unknown and all of that stuff. It really helps to talk to people who have been there. angelspassion4u - You are in my thoughts. My mom went through the exact same thing. The radiation made her very tired, but other than than she did well and had a great outcome, 7+ years beyond her lumpectomy and radiation now.

Sinergy -> RE: Chemo Starts Today.... ughhhhh (10/15/2006 10:46:07 PM)
jessica, julia and My thoughts go out to you. I had a friend once who was going through what you will be going through, and if there is anything either of us can do to support you, please let us know. I had one thought. I myself do not use marijuana. According to my friend, the only way she could a) be hungry and b) not throw up after eating was to get stoned. I have talked to others who have gone through chemotherapy say the same thing. This may not be an issue, but it might be information you may find useful at some point. Be well, our thoughts are with you. Sinergy and julia

daiseytheone -> RE: Chemo Starts Today.... ughhhhh (10/16/2006 1:45:13 PM)
truesub4u, hugs. Hang in there. I went through Chemo, fortunately I was able to eat before the treatments and I drank alot of water, that helped alot. Some say not to take the pain meds until you really need them, I say take them. Complain and cry if you need to, don't spare others. Cuss the doctors if you need to. They should understand, and they probably would do the same if they were the ones being treated. Don't stress yourself trying to be the good little soldier, let it out. But then that's just me, Daisey

philosophy -> RE: Chemo Starts Today.... ughhhhh (10/16/2006 4:04:28 PM)
...my mum has recently completed a course of chemo following a mastectomy for breast cancer.......chemo-technology nowadays is so far advanced that even the experiences of those who had a couple of years back is almost outdated......best of luck to those on it now, and just hang onto that postitive attitude......all med-tech ultimately is about letting the body heal itself......have confidence in the chemo and it'll work for you

michaelGA2 -> RE: Chemo Starts Today.... ughhhhh (10/16/2006 4:13:36 PM)
after seeing several members of my family go through chemo, i think i would rather take my chances with the cancer...but that's just me.

philosophy -> RE: Chemo Starts Today.... ughhhhh (10/16/2006 6:18:54 PM)
...with all due respect, Michael, may i suggest you consider the benefits of positive thinking and the real damage potentially caused by negative thinking.

JerseyKrissi72 -> RE: Chemo Starts Today.... ughhhhh (10/16/2006 6:23:46 PM)
My prayers are with you during this most difficult time. I cannot and will not say that I understand what you are going through but remember, us women are strong ....If you ever need someone to talk to, just let me know...May you find much happiness and good health in your near future.
