This makes sense as where the boob was still feels numb, getting some feeling back now though, it's my arm pit that's achy ( they took a few nodes to check ) yes I thought I'd be in at least a night, but when I saw the surgeon a few weeks before when I didn't know I was having it so soon, he said it was day surgery, and to be fair, apart from managing the pain, I'm not sure what else could be done staying in, so I was very glad to be home in my own bed. Regarding the chemo, I had 12 weekly sessions, was ok for until about week 4, when the fatigue really hit me, prior to this, it was the odd day or afternoon, I didn't have a pattern, it'd just be as and when. I didn't feel sick or have upset stomach or anything, just the fatigue but that was bad enough, and also for me, the chemo accumulated so the more I had, the more tired I got, so from week, 7/8 I was basically just tired the whole time, but not normal tired, hard to explain. The things that helped me was, taking to chemo, a blanket - in there a long time sometimes and you can get chilly sitting there. No books, I couldn't concentrate after two lines so used my head phones and listened instead. I did get a funny metallic taste in my mouth and also, greasy some times, so sparkling water, mints, chewing gum and lots of oranges helped me with that. Oh and lip balm, got dry lips. What was really useful was my mum doing freezer meals for me and friends picking up my kids from school when my husband couldn't. Apart from that, just be at the end of the phone/ what's app and listen, two of my friends were absolute angels and were there the whole time that way for me, checking in most days to ask how I was, I'll never forget that from them.
