Advise please

Hi I would like some advise. I have secondary bc in the bones, liver and omental layer. The last 2 weeks I keep getting a frog in my throat. I just wondered if anyone new if it has anything to do with my cancer. Any advise will be greatly appreciated.x

  • Hi PJ, thanks for the advise. To be honest I don't have a lot of mucus where I have to spit it out. It's only. Bit but constantly clearing my throat. It doesn't seem to be as bad today, so hopefully it's getting better. Your definitely right about dignity going out the window lol, you just don't care anymore, we have more going on in our lives to be bothered. Thank you.xx

  • Thanks Billy, I'm hoping it's going, not been to bad today. Best wishes to you.xx

  • Hi shelly been a bit close here but not bad does weather bother you much,,not sure what's causing my problems think it's hiatus hernea it can push onto lungs a bit so they don't work right, depends on what I'm doing,, hope yours goes away soon, best wishes.

  • Hi Billy, can't take the hot weather anymore, it kills me. Been to see onc today, she couldn't read my scan results because of the thickening in my omental layer, so will have to wait for those. She has also took me of eribulin said it's not working anymore. Going to start me on paclitaxel, when I get a date in the post. She also said she doesn't think there are any other options for me after this one. (Gutted). Arranging an ultrasound to see how much fluid is in my stomach and drain it out. My stomach is so bloated I look pregnant, that would be easier lol. It's so uncomfortable and painful too. Sorry to hear about your hernia, if it's not one thing it's another, we can't keep anything simple can we. Hope you get sorted soon. Thanks Billy.xx

  • Hi shelly sorry for not replying sooner my mother always told me not to keep a lady waiting messages keep vanishing don't think it's me but you never know, sorry you're having problems with meds, hopefully they'll find something for you soon, there's always something round the corner, was struggling last night i felt that tired but couldn't get to sleep till midnight had a bit of a lay in up at five, that's good for me,, your like me just keep plodding on see what's over the next hill, best wishes, love. Billy

    P.s was it more tests than this week or results of tests, sorry mind sometimes like a colander, 

  • Hi Billy, it's fine, don't have to reply instantly lol. First time I've been on today. When you say 5 do you mean in the morning. Me and hubby couldn't sleep last night either, laid talking till 3 then decided to get up for a cuppa, went back to bed at 5. I can't get up on a morning, I'm so tired all the time. I was supposed to get results my onc said she could read them, then she said she couldn't, so have to wait for results to come through. Thanks Billy, hope you get a good nights sleep tonight. Take care.xx

  • Hi shelly. I normally only get 4or5 hours sleep, once Mrs starts going to toilet I don't get back to sleep again, sometimes it's every ten minutes so I go to living room nice cosy leather arm chair I've got a monitor so I hear her no problem, Dr says it's old age,, mind you she is 84 I'm nearly 14 years younger its helpful if I was older we'd be struggling a lot more, enough about me, does hubby help you with things or does he work,, don't worry I'm only being nosy it helps me get an idea about you, that photo was it a wedding, i know you're worried about what happens now with treatment, when you had cemo did you shrink in height, i did it was a shock, hope you slept well, love..... Billy

    P.s has the frog gone yet 

  • Hello Billy, can't you get sleeping tablets, just the otc ones, like calms, they did work for me before. It's awful when you can't sleep, it makes me feel grumpy and I snap t everyone lol. Hubby helps loads does most of the house work and washing, he's just decorated my bathroom and lid. New floor in the kitchen. The photo was from snapchat, no it wasn't. Wedding. You can take your picture and there's lots of different items you can have, like sunglasses, hat, dog ears and nose ha ha. It's good fun. 

    I didn't shrink with chemo, I better not I'm small enough, 5,4in. My husbands 6,4in, little and large. No frog still there but it's not as bad now, so think it's clearing up. Well I'm off to bed now good night Billy. Take care,

    love Shelly.xxx

  • Hi shelly, just got up, can't take anything or might not be OK to put Mrs on commode when she wakes in the night, were about the same or usto be Mrs was 4ft 10in I was 5 ft 7,.Mrs was 6 stone, i was 10,many years ago before problems, we've both put on about two stone, note I'm not using kelo's to fiddly converting everything, have a good night or morning, hope hubby doesn't see these he'll probably come and beat me up talking to you, best wishes. Love..... Billy 

  • Hi Billy,  sorry forgot you look after your wife.

    i was 7 stone when I met Peter, I'm now 9 stone. Peter was 23 stone lol, he's just over 16 now. He carried it well though with him being tall, but looks much better now. He had a heart attack last year which frightened the life out of him and me, they put a stent in so he's fine now just on tablets for life. I think it was caused by the stress over me. By the way I don't like kilos and all the new converttions, don't understand them lol. You made me laugh about hubby seeing these, he knows I'm speaking to you and he's ok, good that way lol. Take care Billy, speak soon.

    love Shelly.xxx
