060318 - Post-op chemo Final Round

Less than one minute read time.

Well that's chemo finished, hopefully. Nothing special to report other than the usual fatigue. 

I was expecting to have a CT scan in three weeks time so was disappointed to be told by my oncologist that I will only have an ultrasound on my abdomen on 4th April and will have to wait until June for the CT scan. When I asked why he said that it was due to the risks from radiation!

I think that the worst part of having this disease is still to come! Until now everything moved fast and there was a plan in place. Now it's the waiting game!

All the insecurities at the time of diagnosis are rearing their ugly heads again.
