I'm still about - my next update -
Haven't felt like coming in here much and seems I'll need to move onbto another area perhaps....
So my Mammogram etc in january after finishing radiation in July - breast clear. 1 ticked off.
I've begun chemo for colon, omentum spread and 3 nodes......first round was shite - especially when they told me to not take any laxatives etc.....as expected I would get diarreah.....but no I had a horrific 4 days and ended up in ER needing an enema - plus colitis.....so draining and uncomfortable.....so am doing it "my way" and have just done round 2....whacked day 1 arvo but lots of energy day 2.....I go home with one attached and had that disconnect yesterday, did too much yesterday perhaps and about to go lay down.
So the plan is fortnightly chemo, til at least May - follow up with Peter Mac clinic...see if spread has stopped....reassess if operate.....thats basics...as I can't be bothered with full explainations sorry ..... but doing ok. Just got to kick it's arse outa mine !!!
Hope everyone is doing ok.
regards and best wishes.
