Hi all (that’s ironic ALL),
Day one of Macmillan community. Feeling my humour is already missed place on my first day at school.
I am looking for someone on UKALL 14 maintenance to tell me mantenanc is the correct word and not a lie like some of those other words the medical profession uses:
You am feel some pressure.......................is actually, it’s going to hurt!
You May feel some discomfort..................it’s going to really hurt!
I love holidays and activities and can’t wait to get back to them. Does anyone scuba dive and has got back to diving post/during treatment.
Hi
Welcome to the ALL forum. I was on the UKALL14 trial back in 2012/13 but ended up having a stem cell transplant rather than maintenance chemo.
My life is pretty much back to normal.. Took about 2-3 years to get fully there after the transplant. I would imagine that maintenance chemo journey would potentially be easier on the body so don't see any reason why scuba diving etc wont be a possibility. Like all these things just check with your medical team first.
