14 years agoAnniversary today!
This morning I awoke to my mobile phone alarm, playing an upbeat tune with the words "Happy Halloween..3 years cancer-free..congratulations!" flashing on the screen.
Today I was diagnosed with earl...
Thank you for your messages of support ladies. Not long til my appointment for the results and treatment plan at 12 noon tomorrow! Tonya you're right...I was only just starting to get my confidence back...for the first time I was starting to make some plans for the future (only early next year) and now this unexpected turn of events. Yes, the cancer appears to be in its very early stages...tiny little dots sprinkled throughout both lungs which is unusual apparently...I cling to the hope that it can be knocked on the head though.
Alison, firstly, well done for getting through AC! I also had AC in 2009 and bloody hell...it certainly knocked me around something shocking! I think we deserve a giant trophy for surviving that alone! I agree, you definately feel better when you physically feel good. I've had a pain in my lower back for a few weeks now, and luckily no cancer was detected there in any of the scans. My GP has sent me for some additional xrays to double-check for any inflamed joints, slipped disks etc., so I will be glad when that is dealt with too. You're right, waiting is never easy, but what else can we do in times like these? I have certainly been incredibly positive over the last 3 years...and I am surprised at how sad and upset I feel at the moment. I guess it is just all part of grieving and the mixed emotions that we feel at a time like this. The drawing out of the results and treatment plan hasn't helped either, as last time I was diagnosed everything moved super-quickly which helped. Anyway, thank you for your posts. It is a comfort to know that I am not alone xxxx
