I've reached a compromise and changed into my round th'houses (a Sweaty Betty orange 'lounge suit' that Mr F says makes me look like a baked bean), put some washing out and feel like I've achieved enough to warrant more hours in front of the idiot box.
Have finally decided, after much consideration, to have a break from Tamoxifen. I think it'll do us both good. I know, I know, I will have my critics but I care not. The side effects are vastly reducing my quality of life and I want to see if being without toxic phlegm means an end to the unbearable tiredness. And the mood swings (the lovely Mr F is such a patient soul. Loves him to pieces.) I'm hoping to go back to work next week and really can't face it feeling as tired as I currently feel. So, bollocks to it. Already the bone ache has reduced considerably and I'm sleeping better. I should probably discuss this with the onc but since he's on 4 weeks leave it'll have to wait.
Oh! When I was released from hospital confinement I was given a new softie. My original softie was a size 1 and this is a size 4 (I origiannly just went for the smallest softie which was actually far too small.) Went out for a pub tea last night with some of la famille and wore it for the first time. It looks good! I look symmetrical! Was a bit sore though, rubbing up against my war wound as I tackled my scampi.
Am bio-oiling like mad in preparation for my first pumping in two weeks time. Wheee!
Loving the spirit!
