Hi I’m new to the group I got diagnosed with MDS 3 months ago and having Azacididine injections I was supposed to get my 2nd cycle last Monday but I’ve got low white blood count feeling a bit down to be fair .
Hi anndanv not too bad waiting for results of ct scan had the spring covid jab last week that knocked me for six but always feel rough after I have had it but this one I felt worse with the side effects but rather have it than not at all really perked me up seeing tvman posting again thanks for asking how I am xx
Hi Flippen, great to see your name here and thanks very much for your concern. Mrs T is a lot better although there are still some toileting issues going on. She's had her stoma reversed and had an email from her surgeon to say that her CT scan shows no leaks and all seems fine in that regard. She's expecting a letter to see the surgeon soon as it's almost 3 months since the last operation.
Again, thanks for your concern

Hi, It seems we are always either waiting to have a scan or waiting for the results! I have a liver scan on Wednesday this week and Dermatology on Monday, Vince has to get his bloods redone then Goes for tests on 6 May! There's always something eh! Please let me know when you get the results.
Love Annette x
Hi Tvman, You have been through a difficult time with Mrs T and yourself. I do hope now the stoma has been reversed and is good on the CT, there is a light at the end of the tunnel! I do pray her joints will improve with the good weather, it is very frustrating when your mobility is affected! It is difficult enough when it is ourself affected by cancer but I think when it is a family member it makes things even worse. There are others on the forum having similar problems and it is good we can support one another!
I'd love to see what you have been up to in your garden, although I can imagine you don't have as much time for it these days. You could maybe put some photos on a fresh post or even under the Hobbies & Craft one already started and it will encourage the rest of us to follow suit! Take care both of you!
Love Annette x
