Hi everyone

I'll be heading for the doctor's in ¾ of an hour for my latest blood test for my bone marrow cancer. I'll have a telephone consultation on Friday to find out what state my blood is in. Last time, eight weeks ago, I was declared neutropenic after the previous two occasions when I was dead on the line between safety and danger. 

Take care and stay safe everyone

  • Oh dear that's not good news...i dn't know much about your cancer but would a blood transfusion help??

  • Sorry to hear your disappointing news. It does get hard when we get bad news. But we keep on going and enjoy the garden and appreciate what we have.

    I hope they can do something to improve your situation.

    I have viewed my CT  scan on my computer and the lung mets are larger some 3 cm and one 4,5 cm
    i didn’t view the brain scan because I don’t really understand it. The oncoldid show me when the mets first showed up. I will ask for the written report which my oncologist will send me once he has spoken to me on the phone tomorrow. I am not looking forward to the conversation.

    Thinking of you

    love Ruth xxx

    Thanks Patmart, we are very pleased.

  • Hi all,

    havent been on here for a couple of days, so i have some catching up to do.

    1 - great to hear you are stable. Enjoy it

    2. - sorry your news is less good. You seem to be a survivor though, and just keep going despite the pain and discomfort. A garden is a marvellous thing, even if just for pottering if heavier jobs are a bit much at times, and you clearly take so much joy from your garden, and your gardening wisdom is much appreciated.

    3. - good luck with the conversation and hope the results are the best they can be.
