    Hi Christina, don't think we should give out details as to where we are, etc., but you can message me on here. Let me know how the last round of chemo went.  Look forward to hearing from you.  Sue

    Hi all hope you don't mind me butting in. I've got cancer in prostate, lymph nodes, spine, ribs, pelvis and a lung it was found in Feb 2016 had cemo June to August that year like most of yours it's uncurable, just an uninvited guest hue won't leave, I'll probably have more cemo next year to keep it down but i struggled with cemo, but at least I'm alive, Cemo isn't nice but nether is other option, good luck to all hope things go well for all....

    Chemotherapy is very sickening but I'm told mine is important to have hopefully it shrinks the cancer and surgery could be option not at the moment though I think I could be facing radiation  I hope the horrible feeling after chemotherapy settles soon

    Hi Christina, hang on in there it will get easier.  I tried to send you an e-mail address but it isn't allowed but we can message privately and I have sent you a friend request which you will have to agree to.  We can then chat without anyone else being involved.   You can still put posts on the regular forum.   I'm not doing too great at moment.  They gave me a date of the 7th October for my MRI scan which I said was too long and that I would go private.  However they have given me an appointment today without sedation to see if I can manage if not I will have to wait until next Monday.  Fingers crossed I can do it today then I will be able to get treatment sooner.  Thinking of you and hoping the side effect don't last too long.  Sue
