June 1st

We were back to London again yesterday - this time to see the oncologist.  As the oral chemotherapy I have been having over the last 3 months hasn't had an effect on my lungs, he is planning to start me on a new course of chemotherapy but he is very hopeful that this will be more effective, given the type of cancer that I have.  I'll start my first session on the 11th & go in  every 3 weeks.  Hopefully we have 10 days off from travelling to London now so we can enjoy the next week off!  


I'm still continuing to feel well after the Gamma Knife - they are working on reducing the steroids I'm taking day by day over the next few weeks and thankfully my headaches have stayed away.  All going well, I'll go back to see the consultant at the start of July for a MRI & check up to see the affects of the radiotherapy.  Can't wait to finish steroids so I can sleep again!  I wake any time from 2:30am and could be awake for the rest of the night!  I would never survive without my trusty kindle!!
