I've just recently gone through successful treatment for breast cancer and I am extremely grateful I am done with the chemo and cancer free. I was wondering if anybody else had an experience similar to this where I had all of these things I reacted due because of my Asperger's. For instance, I didn't bat an eye when I was told I had to get my breasts removed last year, but I cried like I had lost a friend when I was told upcoming chemo treatments would make me lose my hair. Now I am in that phase where I am healthy, I just look like a completely different person. My hair has grown back darker and curlier. That is messing with my mind a little. Anyway, finally found a forum to opine. ;-)

You've been through alot jlvice and I applaud you for coming out the other side and surviving.
I think AS can effect our emotional reaction to things, we are a quirky little lot after all
I'm glad you have found AFF, we've all had our problems and you'll find many understanding people here.


Oh, and adjusting to curly hair? I know that feeling. Mine inexplicably decided to turn from thick waves into a mass of curly "tubes" when I hit 30 and I'm still learning how to deal with it!
