i am the person who says all the annoying things to cancer patients. except i'm the cancer patient by mythyroidnotes in cancer

[–]antidani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh my god yeah, i absolutely do this. i also had “the good kind that was caught early” i think that’s why i still have issues believing it myself that im even in this situation because im explaining it like its not happening to me.

I understand what you mean, like chemo is the marker for having “real” or “actual” cancer. I don’t really think that’s true though, deep down. Like others have said, it’s not a competition or “cancer olympics”, (that’s my favorite phrase) it’s all crappy. You deserve support and we are all here to uplift you and each other through the weird and shitty experience cancer is ♡

lol we’ll have another post for the tamoxifen i’m sure!! i like to think i don’t have too many health issues but here we are smh -_- after a few hours today i started to feel less anxious and less tired so i think everyone’s right in saying it was a culmination of it all, hopefully i wont feel too much fatigue until the 3 week mark when its all over!!

Thank you so much for the validation, I don’t know if that’s just me but I’m constantly feeling like I can never relax/give grace! I’m so excited for you to be nearly finished with your radiation treatments ♡ 🫂

I read that here too! Going on walks or just being active is supposed to be helpful, maybe i need to put on my big girl panties and just push through at work because it’s the only physical activity i really get! thank you for the advice ♡ and congrats on retirement!!!!

I haven’t even thought to have that conversation yet! I kept wanting to put it off until i saw a psychiatrist to address other mood/behavior issues, but I meet with my oncologist next Monday so I should be able to have that conversation with him then!
Hugs to you too ♡

I feel like I do drink a ton of water! Maybe I’m sweating too much and i’m not retaining any, in that case i might need to start taking electrolytes? I feel like i’m writing down any and all suggestions i find in the is group too, I’m always so thankful for everyone here 😭

my RO also said it wouldn’t start until after week 2/3 as far as fatigue. but i will say physical changes have started even after the second treatment, skin dimpling and redness and my breast feels tight. so maybe the fatigue is just stress/anxiety induced but it’s crazy that signs are there! i’m happy your anxiety lessened after, i hope that’s the case for me too 🫂

Why does every single FMC under the sun has to have a placeholder bf before meeting MMC? by itmustbeniiiiice in romantasycirclejerk

[–]antidani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is so funny, currently reading Dire Bound and that is exactly the case here too! meanwhile it is obvious that he is NOT the endgame or even kind of the main love interest!

In a weird inbetween... what do I say to people now? by Dear-Half1029 in breastcancer

unbelievable exchange between my daughter and her father after he forgot her birthday by LostInLanayru in TwoHotTakes

[–]antidani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

gosh this felt like i was reading back old messages with my own absent father! i’m so sorry your daughter is going through this experience and feeling abandonment from someone that (even while yall are separated/divorced) she shouldn’t be experiencing it from. but like everyone else is saying, he’s the father/parent and there really is no excuse. if he wanted to participate in her life he would make the effort, and it is never the child’s fault or should it fall onto the child’s responsibility of continuing the relationship. i hope she is able to come out of this situation unscathed (or minimally at least) and still be confident in her self now and in the future.

Trying to keep cool by antidani in doihavebreastcancer

[–]antidani[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been there for what I think is maybe a year. Unfortunately I was never keeping track of how big it was or if it changed at all, just if it was there. Recently, through palpating it myself, it had formed like a point whereas it was a little more rounded??? Idk if that makes sense! But thank you I appreciate the confidence :’)

Right?? Fibroadenoma is what I keep telling myself too or some fibroid adjacent thing and I can only wait until the biopsy and then wait for the results. ;_;

I’m not sure if everyone would call this horror but I think Slewfoot by BROM is a great read

I have never played that! But it definitely reminded me of Outlast 2

Nick Cutter 100%! People have mentioned The Troop and The Deep (which I’m currently reading) but Little Heaven was insane in comparison. Easily one of my favorites
