I was teaching a Pilates class this morning, and had to step outside briefly because of dizziness coupled with a nose bleed. The clients barely noticed, I passed it off as a touch of hay fever, but felt very exposed. The last couple of months on oral chemo have been tough, but doable, the dizziness is a new development this week.
It could be tumour flare, the cancer markers have almost doubled....
It could be disease progression, the cancer markers have almost doubled....
It could be unrelated to the cancer....
Actually I know I don't have to think about it at all. Have a head MRI at the Gamma Knife Centre and an appointment with my Oncologist at the end of the month. But do I go to Bute on Fri for the weekend? Don't want my friends to end up looking after me. Will I be o.k. to teach next week, or is it time to stop? My health has deteriorated on this treatment, but I'm going to be on it for as long as it works.
Probably short term damage limitation and no decisions until scan results is the way to go, but just as things are settling down again, it's back to one foot in the grave and the other on a banana skin.
It could be much worse. Night all xx
