crap crap and double crap

i thought i had recovered well. a bit of lymphodeama but otherwise ok . i am now on long service leave after managing to work most of the time during chemo and radiation now it turns out  i have a tooth with a massive cyst non malignant they think . it has bcome infected and has eroded the bone in my face . quite dangerous they say. cant have operation untill at least the end of march.it also turns out that the chemo has made my thyroid not work very well so now on thyroxin. my good arm and back are also playing up resulting in trips to the chiropractor. i was supposed to be off to hong kong and thailand for easter but will now have to delay. never mind i just thought i would have a good winge best wishes to you all

  • This disease saps our time. We have to devote more time to seeking treatment for all the bits that break down, more time to dressing in the morning, more time to arrange and care for hair that is thinning, falling out or growing back the wrong way, more time to organising our meds for treatment and the side effects of treatment etc

    Just an observation, I'm not really grizzling as I have the best side effect of all, I'm still alive!
