My daughter has now started chemo. First day today, walked i just as she was having a severe case of the shakes. got hold of her legs until they stopped. i was standing on my feet all the time. When i left she was on stage three of todays stuff. i told her i was going to give her a rest from me till monday. She said i will have had the stuff that makes her lose her hair then. This was to prepare me in case she was bold. I just said i will come and take things as they are no worries.
It doesn't help having a flare with my left ankle, its killing. Extra pain relief and a good rub with some cream that does seem to help.
Well thats it for now , hope everyone else is doing ok. Sending you all hugs. XXX
Chris

Really sorry to hear of your troubles and hope your daughter gets well soon.
Have you tried glucosamine gel or ibuprofen gel? If your in the UK the Boyes chain of shops sells both and has a lot of really inexpensive gels and creams for pain.
The optima glucosamine, aloe, devils claw and msm one is quite good. Cheap too at about £2-3.00
Keep smiling and chat soon.
Blessings on you all for a super happy and healthy Christmas.xx
It is my weekend off, even tho have rang her once today . She has also text me . she is having a new chemo drug and then a dose of what she had yesterday. That is the one that gave her the shakes which were head to toe, including her jaw.
Thanks for all the replies they do help.
sending you all hugs and best wishes for christmas. XXXX
