Hi Pete,

Your sense of humor still shines through as well and that makes reading the updates easier.

When my Mum's straight hair grew back very curly.

All the best with the treatment.

Hope it all keeps going as well as it can.

I'm glad you should be feeling reasonable for Christmas.

Yep, ALL the body hair eventually goes .... which will be odd, and there will be no photos on the forum.
My thinning head hair and beard will be shaved in the next few days.

Don't worry, Trust me it's proven by science (source: Me),

It is my intention to move it about 300km on a day during the weeks that I'm feeling good, so it should be OK.

In all of this I figure that if my hair is falling out and I'm feeling crook, the chemo is also busy killing cancer cells,</blockquote><blockquote> and I have the perfect excuse to rest up and watch the poms get flogged in Perth.

And you are a prophet too😀

I had my third round of chemo last Wednesday, so I'm about half way through the series. Feeling fatigued and crook most of the time is wearing me down a bit, but it's good to be making progress through the treatment, and I'm doing stuff on my good days and resting when I need to. No further hair loss yet, but it's all a bit thin.

Good to hear.

I hope it all goes well and things continue to get on top of it.

Hang in there mate we are thinking of you

StinkyPete · « **Reply #188 on:** January 17, 2018, 06:37:08 AM »

Well, I'm over half way through my treatment and seem to be coping OK. The side effects have been confined to some hair thinning so I've gone to a number 1 cut, tiredness, and an upset tummy from time to time, and a bit of "extra special" wind early in the cycle. I've put on a couple of extra kilos, which is probably some fluid retention. Overall, it hasn't been as bad as I expected, and here's a recent photo.

Looking remarkably well Pete.

StinkyPete · « **Reply #190 on:** January 17, 2018, 07:33:08 AM »

As the photo suggests, "Wind" vs "Follow Through" is a delicate balance.

You don't look a day over 30 Pete. Good to hear your doing ok.

Biggles · « **Reply #194 on:** January 17, 2018, 10:24:00 AM »

I think you're over-doing the eye make-up. Otherwise the side-effects are hardly noticeable.

ppopeye · « **Reply #195 on:** January 17, 2018, 10:46:09 AM »

Good to hear you are doing ok. Keep it up amd may the side effects be minimal.
