I am slowly gaining my strength back. My hair is still slowly growing. I am also driving again. My appetite is returning but I noticed I can't eat as much as I did before. I still get waves of nausea and I will take a pill and it goes away. The bone pain is less and I feel the last chemo dose is finally wearing off. I went to the plastic surgeon to discuss reconstruction, I signed the papers...it's a go just need medical clearance. I appreciate the support from this group. Everybody is so wonderful. Hugs, Pami

YAY Pami!! Good to hear.
So did you ever take up any of the suggestions about painting your head? lol
I'm delighted to hear that you're finally feeling better, Pami! Don't push yourself too hard; your body needs time to recuperate. Good luck with the reconstruction clearance! :)
Been wondering about you Pami...glad to hear you're OK!

I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better. I think it just takes a little while for your appetite to return. I'm glad you can take something for the nausea. Hope you get the medical clearance soon.

And now you can have some real oranges (Vit C )with a splash of that other stuff to help them go down. Of course, it IS medicinal purposes, what were you thinking? that *I*, lil ole me, would actually tell you to imbibe? Well, I declare! Have one for me while you're at it. Could use one today.
