More good news! I got the results of my scan yesterday and the great news is that the chemotherapy is still working! The nodules on my lung are still reducing and my tumour markers are looking good. The blood results are improving too and my blood count is much better - I am still slightly anaemic but they are happy that I don't need a transfusion at the moment as I'm not feeling over tired or fatigued.
I had the second part of the new treatment yesterday and was concerned that I would feel sick afterwards as they didn't give me the extra anti-sickness medication (apparently it interferes with one of the other drugs I'm taking) but I'm so thankful to say that I did well since my last treatment & I feel good so far this time.
Last week was a busy week with 2 trips to London for treatment & scan, meal out on Friday night & 2 days out to celebrate Marilyn's birthday so this week I'm going to take it a bit easier and rest up some more :) I have 4 treatments in the space of 6 weeks - two done and the next two on November 20th & 27th - and then they've promised to give me a break!!

Fantastic news Sharon. Thrilled to bits. Hope the next treatments go well and that you get some good rest and are able to take it a bit easier this month. We're thinking and praying for you lots. We just came back from Switzerland last Thursday and then had Shaun and Sondi and kids here for 5 days. This week is back to school and routine! Give our love to Dave. Can't believe he's the BIG 40!! Chat soon. Lots of love. xo
