Effing cancer is an effing effer, frankly
Discussion
So sorry to hear that Morningside.
My OH has had the results of all his scans yesterday and it shows enlarged lymph nodes again in the same area as the last Cancer. Neither his consultant or the attending doctor could feel anything yesterday (despite the supposed size of it) so we're just waiting on the result of the meeting today with the rest of the cancer team and an in-depth look at the MRI & CT scan to see how they'd like to proceed.
Got a feeling this may be round three with the big C.

Yesterday I held my wife and said goodbye to her after 19 years of marriage.
She put up a damn good fight and at least she had her wish as all her family were with her and she died at home.
Hiss and more hiss. Well done to her for putting up a good fight.She put up a damn good fight and at least she had her wish as all her family were with her and she died at home.
So sorry to read.
You are so much in my thoughts. Cancer is such a vile disease.

Had my 8 week check last week and they are happy with the progress of the recovery from the radio therapy
I am now on 12 week checks
So just when you think its safe to go back in the water I am now on 12 week checks
I have been suffering from lower back pain , but its been going on for a couple of months now all started in the gym , because of my history of cancer they got me in for an MRI scan on my lumber region , having scanned my lumber they took me out and said they were scanning my upper back which seemed strange , 3 hours later my GP is on the phone warning me that they had seen something which could probably be cancer in my bone marrow / spine
Had a head neck scan next day which was all clear and saw my oncologist the day after who was not reassuring and was saying basically the same as the GP.
Just had a bone marrow biopsy taken from my lower back (not recommended) and awaiting results
Have a full body CT scan next week , so it aint over till its over as they say
having a massive blast of radio therapy today to try to shrink it followed by 6 cycles of chemo starting next Friday

Oh that really isn't good news Lost Soul, have you got plenty of support from family & friends?
My OH is clear, evidently the CT scan they sent over on Wednesday when he saw his consultant was 'the wrong one' . So unnecessary worry that he'd potentially got Cancer again for nothing.

treatment 1, when my tonsils haemorrhaged in the middle of the night 7 days after initial surgery and 2, when my blood broke down as I finished chemo and radio therapy , forget the term
She is an absolute diamond and her family are top notch and have been fabulous , the joke is my treatment finished December 2013 , she was diagnosed in April 2014 with breast cancer and now I am back in trouble in 2015 with this st again , you could not make it up could you
