Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 15 Aug 2022 15:40

Had a ct scan three weeks ago and follow up appointment with one of my surgeons sidekicks two weeks ago

Soo the node with cancer in hasn’t got bigger or spread

Dr was she is going to have radiotherapy as I don’t want to miss the opportunity!


They had seen some dots in the lungs but put them down to scar tissue from possible historical chest infections , but latest scan did show a couple more

But I had developed a cough and phlegm on the chest that went over the voice box when I speak

Was ok that’s interesting but not a symptom of lung cancer!

Soo have a PET scan and see where we go

Had the scan oh Saturday!

Feel well , have been out to chiro and got dental check tomorrow, partial denture needs adjustment cos chemo has affected the fit

Next week got annual eye test and another chiro appointment

Soo getting out and about again and will do all the while i feel I can


From feeling omg I,m on my way out but not giving in to it I feel maybe its not on the immediate horizon :-D
