Hi Anna,
I’m sorry to hear about your mom. Yes, my pins and needles have stopped, only it felt more like bee stings. I had to go into the Cancer Center to drop off a note for my doctor, my hands were hurting so bad I couldn’t talk to the receptionist with out crying. She got me in to see a doctor’s assistant right away and she put me on steroids. What a relief!
I had my 6th and last chemo September 23. Next Wednesday, the 26th, I drive 5 hours north for my Oct 27th Oncologist GYN visit. We don’t have one in this area. I’m hoping my port will also be removed.
I am so thankful that I haven’t been sick through any of this. What I experienced was fatigue and after the first 3 or 4 chemos, body aches and of course, the bee stings.
I found the fatigue was the worst after the 5th and 6th chemos. The 6th the worst of the two. I have just started to get up and around the past three days after the chemo I had September 23rd. But other than that, I’m feeling great.
Shirley
