Progress

2010-08-08T19:52:31Z

Back to work to tomorrow after nearly 2 months. Scary prospect but at lease its a phased start so I can build up.

I then move on to the trials assesments and see if I am accepted.

Just a month, wow!

Just worked it out and it a bit over a month since the operation, blimey doesn't time fly! Knowing, that I'm pleased at the progress I'm making in getting back to normal, everyone was telling me it would be so slow. Hopefully it just means I am doing well and I won't get a big suprise later on that I will regret.

Good day

Yesterday's path results were good with no spread and clear margins. Now need to move on to the next stages. There might be some drug treatment but that is a discussion to be had. At least I'm clear at the moment and only need to have 6 monthly scans for now.

Surgery recovery is going well even if it is frustrating and boring! Day at a time, its incrediable to think I've come this far when I think what I was like coming out of hospital!

Progress, even if it feels slow

Now I can stay up all day and walk to the end of the road and beyond without needing a sleep afterwards.

Starting to fret over the next stages as the pathology form the op is taking a long time to come through. I do not like waiting and waiting seems to be the name of the game with the NHS and healthcare in general.

Operation Over

2010-06-26T08:53:03Z

I'm back home after the operation and recovering OK. 4 and bit hours in theatre and a 2kg tumor has left me somewhat sore. Can only just cope with sitting in front of the computer.

Just wish I could actually sleep more than an hour at a time and not be overtaken by a 120 year old granny with a zimmer frame.
