After being diagnosed with Bowel Cancer in June 2010, I started my treatment to beat it in July. I am creating this Blog to chart my progress and as an easy way to let all the wonderful people I know keep up to date with my progress. It is called "Addicted to Green Tea" as there is evidence that it is a powerful antioxidant and enhances the effects of radiotherapy on cancer cells.

What's been happening/
The side effects from the last blast of chemo have are not too bad - it is just the fatigue and tiredness which is taking up a lot of my time and stopping me from doing as much as I plan. I have also developed more teenage spots on my face than I ever had when I was one all that time ago! The fingers have not got any worse in fact I think that they have improved with my regime of using rubber gloves to wash up, gardening gloves for gardening and plenty of hand cream. My hands have never been so pampered The tingling in my hands has not been an issue this cycle but there has been some sensitivity in my feet. So all in all I am not doing too badly - just need to take things slowly and rest as much as I can.
