Sept-Oct. 07. 26 treatments went well. Yes tired but not too much. Glad it is over. Hardly any burning. Used Lubriderm cream all the time; that helped.

Arimidex taken at night. Started treatment Aug. 07. Sleep deprived, night sweats, bones ache, sometimes tired, always hungry.

If you ever are looking for the most romantic holiday ever, where noone under 18 is allowed, all 9 restaurants are ala carte, everything included, beautiful beach, wonderful spa with outdoor massages under thatched roofs, Casita sections with only 15 2 storey units where max 60 people share your private swimup bar, then this is the place for recuperation. If you want to find out more just go to www.tripadvisor.com and key in Mexico, Mayan Riveria or email me at weeziefell@sympatico.ca and I will tell you lots more.
