Happy Easter to all my friends on here, just thought i d write a new blog for an update. Almost 6 months post treatment and i feel just back to normal in myself (whatever normal is lol) just suffering a bit from the side effects of radiotherapy on the throat! Last Monday i went for a videofleuroscopy (video xray of the throat) very fascinating watching food going down on the screen as you eat, anyway looks like im going to have a throat stretch in the near future, it was confirmed that the area hasnt gone back to normal and thats the reason im struggling with normal food!!! So being someone who loves her food and normally eats anything i am really looking forward to this being done although they do say i may need to have it done more than once!!!! Have started on some homeopathy which i dont know if its physchological but they have definitely taken the "sting" out of my tongue, so whether or not it is im sticking with it!!! Anyway thats where im at now, still off work but am now enjoying life a bit more and getting my energy back, hope everyone else is feeling good and upbeat as i am, if not chin up keep up the positivity and stick in there. This illness has taught me so much i can tell you and definitely made me a better person because of it, i was at my brothers wedding on thursday in york and everyone was complimenting me on how well i looked which was nice and for a moment i felt proud of myself for being strong and positive in attitude and also not forgetting i couldnt have done it without my lovely friends and family behind me. Love to you all.
