Me again.......

Thought I had better update - whats been happening??

Well I phoned chemo nurse to discuss whether my scan had been discussed at x ray meeting, and it had, and he also had copy of letter (which I have since received), from onc . Basically at the x ray meeting, it was agreed no new growths on my scan, and the cancerous nodule was confirmed as just having grown 2mm in a year. They did discuss whether surgery would be an option, and it probably would be, but they would probably like to sit on it, and scan me in another year - which seems a bit long to me!! However the letter did say if I want referred to cardio thoracic to discuss options then thats fine too, so after discussion with D, thats what I am going to do.
To be honest, if it was thoracotomy, that is a major op, so its not a decision I would jump into, but if it could be done keyhole then that would be a better option. I have lots of questions I need to ask, and after that lots of thinking.
IF I got the nodule removed, I would technically have no active cancer in my body - altho there could obviously be microscopic cells elsewhere that just do not show up on scan yet. Guess its a question if I want to risk surgery, or wrist leaving the cancer to grow further then start treatment again - not an easy one!!!

Thats the health news. The school reunion is now only 1 week today - the excitement is really building, so has the list of people coming, and the list of fab raffle prizes. Really looking forward to it, cant wait.

Was out to pub yesterday with old school friend F, went out for lunch - and got home at 0130!!! Was supposed to have old sick kids lunch today, but I switched off my alarm this morning, fell asleep again, and didn't wake up till 1130 - the lunch started at 12, so there was no way I was going to make it - shame I was looking forward to it.

Think thats about it for now
Bye for noooooo

Todays saying.....
Many people think because a person appears to be well on the outside, that nothing is wrong on the inside. This is not true. Many of us are hiding our physical and mental pain with a smile.........Paulo Coelho

George Michael

Well what can I say...........exactly a week ago, Suzie and I were inside the Royal Albert Hall, in the champagne bar eagerly awaiting the one and only George Michael..........and I for one was not disappointed. He was everything I ever hoped for and more.
The gig was just fantastic, I sat with a grin on my face most of the time, and just couldn't believe that I was finally seeing him after being a fan since the Wham days.
The Royal Albert Hall was a very special place too - absolutely stunning.
There are just no words to describe the whole experience, his voice was truly amazing, and he was looking very fit indeed and is ageing very well.

The whole trip to London was good, with Suzie, S and R. We went to see Shrek the musical Thursday night, the girls went shopping on Regent Street on Friday, whilst S and I sat in bar. On Saturday, we went to Covent Garden, but S was in a lot of pain so had to back to hotel to lie down before the show at night. Suzie and I saw Wicked again at night. All in all, a good time had by all I think.

I should be feeling top of the world after my scan results, but to be honest I am still feeling pretty shite and don't know why - feel sicky, little appetite, little energy, and have had a few dizzy spells. Getting pretty pizd off feeling like this, and not knowing why. Trying to sort out bowels and see if that helps any, but will head back to GP if this sicky feeling persists.

Mentally I am still fine, don't think I am depressed, just fed up feeling crap.

will try to attach pic of GM once I am on lappy rather than ipad.

Wish I was seeing George again tonight - lol
