Omg, thanx for your reply. I had the surgery first, not so bad at all., and start my first treatment tomorrow, scared of it all! Full of nervous energy, so I’m going to try to walk there or part of the way. They said no driving the first day for sure, Are you driving yourself? I’d prefer to.
Benadryl usually gives me sinus infections, so not a big fan there either.
A friend said just shave it all off before, she plans to when she retires, she’s Asian and looks 15 years younger.
I was just looking into wigs, which I doubt I’ll be wearing, but thought I should check out. Halloween isn’t that far off , so maybe try a goofy blue one. Nah… haha I’ll try it your way, and appreciate any more tips, so thanx for that.
I haven’t told to many friends, but word gets out anyway. It’s the looks, and hugs and not big on talking about it less and I bring it up. I know I’m goofy.
Have an issue that was the focus to start , And that’s when the CT showed ovarian Cancer. Prior issue put Avastin off the cocktail menu for me.
Just checked out Joby Martin, great full for any coping mechanisms.
Tried finding a cancer therapist, found one support group, think they only meet once a month via zoom. Eeek

P.s. did something wrong ,hit reply twice, not sure if this will show up right. .. oh well

Did you have HIPEC with your surgery? Chemo really hasn’t been that bad. I’m still walking two miles a day. Just take naps sometimes. I only take one nausea pill on the third night. I think that is when all those premeds wear off. I don’t drive. The benedryl makes me loopy!
