update: things are better than I thought!

Less than one minute read time.
Thanks to everyone who replied to my last blog, no one understands what this like better than the wonderful people on this site. Saw the oncologist last Monday, the CT scan was clear!! However, ca125 is still up. Am having another scan , blood test and appointment on 23rd November.Am really happy as I had prepared myself for more chemo straight away.Was told the cancer is back but on a microscopic level. I will not be treated until something shows on scan.Still feeling very well. Julie

    Hi Julie,

    Just read your last blog hadnt come across you before so i read your profile, i know our cancers are different but i noticed we were of similar age and i too have daughters and recently diagnosed since the 15th July, im starting treatment on the 25th August, radical radio and chemo for 6 long weeks, have to have a PEG fitted as they say i wont be able to swallow my food once the treatment kicks in, like you i have every emotion going on thats possible, what i cant get my head round is that i feel great now but during and after treatment i l feel terrible, like you probably do i look healthy at the moment and its hard to believe somethings going on in there isnt it?

    Anyway just wanted to say good luck and if you ever fancy a chat i d love to hear from you.

    Take care

    Jill
