Sorry I've not been back to update this & thanks for the messages, especially the PM from my friend up in the north.

I am actually very fortunate in that I only need a low dose of chemo, two consecutive days every 4 weeks & my 2nd course comes up next week. I've had next to no ill effects, maybe I nap more in the afternoons but, as I've recently been made redundant, that's no problem.

I know so many people who have had it worse & I see some when I go for treatment, so I really am lucky. Not only have I had no side effects, I've also got my appetite & energy back. I've now got to be careful as I lost over 3 stone in 4 months & I don't want to put it all back on!
