So far in my read it’s mostly the same information and advice here on this forum only from a clinical psychologist perspective.

I found it interesting the way different people have different coping skills presented. It has help me realize my role and my rationale as I filter all this new information.

For me I am having different feelings based on my condition for that day of treatment. As I enter my 4th week of treatment the fatigue and side effects are starting to arise.

Over the last couple of days I’ve gone out without a hat proudly showing off my radiated hairline challenge. Yet I struggle with the black-n-blue needles marks on my hands and arms.

It’s strange how it’s the little things that are bothering me. But my willingness to to share is my new power. As I look toward success in the treatment plan.

Be blessed

@ce1b Well, I had a reply typed out, and it disappeared. Dang.

I have the marks you speak of, too. My arms look like a battlefield that I lost on! Long sleeves all year 'round for me.

Your new power of sharing is powerful! You'll never know who will be thankful for you doing that, who may read your words and feel boosted in spirit.

Have you considered journaling your thoughts, and even if you never share them to anyone else, you might look back in the future and be surprised. Here is a discussion on journaling: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/journaling-the-write-stuff-for-you/
