I was keeping well when I was told my cancer was terminal and declined the offer of chemo.
I was fully expecting to start chemo again at my 3 month check but was my scan showed good news, the cancer was slow growing and did not require any chemo to control it at present.
I was extatic that I would have more time. However, shortly after I became tired, breathless and had a supra ventricular tachycardia. I haven't been right since, waiting for cardio appointment has been the worst. I felt I could fight with the cancer but not much I can do if my heart gives up..
