Had flu jab and acupuncture on Wednesday they knocked me a little for 6 but am good really.how many weeks post treatment are yiu now ? I had my scan at  17 weeks Dr  wanted to make sure that all hot spot s would have gone .sat here trying to eat my favourites plain crisps I know mouth will be dry but a girls got to have some pleasures. 

Please let me know when you hear something,just ring tomorrow not sure if they give them overnight phone know my dr liked to *** at the m d t meeting then tell his patients face to face ,but as we know they are all different  the pet ctbscan is the best scan to have a special it does show a through picture

Hi Herbie

So sorry to hear about your husband , is he having chemo and radiotherapy ? Treatmant itself is quite painless , it's the side effects of the radiotherapy that are pretty harsh , I finished my treatment on the 16th August this year and still have side effects but if it's a choice of those or living I choose side effects , I do have down days , the best person to talk to it Hazel ( radioactiveraz ) she is so lovely and a year ahead of me , she is full of great advice and tips on how to deal with things , and cheers me up when I'm having a s++t day .  She also has a blog  from the start of her treatment it's worth a read , Keep in touch and add me as a friend if u just want a chat , hope all goes well and as I said keep in touch xxxx

Thanks so much.  He’s got 6 weeks of radio with chemo once a week. Team at hospital are lovely but although he’s pretty brave about the whole thing he had a bit of a panic when they were measuring the mask as he thought too much about the fact it was pressing on his face. I’m trying to teach him mindfulness which is ironic as he has always been really sceptical about all that. I’m also a bit worried about the journey. Hospital is quite a long bus ride away. At moment I’ve said I will pick him up on chemo days but I’m thinking I will have to take maybe ten last 2 weeks off work. I’m trying to keep it to a minimum as I *** think they will pay me. Any tips re the mask would be great

Bless him , the mask can seem daunting , but honestly it's not as bad as you think , and you are only in it for roughly ten min that's all it takes , I think it's one of those things u just get used to , as for getting to hospital , I was 2.5 hours away , at first was gonna stay in hospital accommodation but only lasted 2 days got homesick , but found out if u have cancer you can get transport to and from hospital , I just asked my gp , they gave me number , and u just book the times u want , on radiotherapy days they would just wait for me , I know my husband wouldn't be able to take that much time off work , and first few weeks I suffered sickness from chemo so not nice being on public transport xxxx
