Waiting patiently even tho the consultant reassured me he said it doesn’t look sinster.  Still telling me I have to wait.   Kind of convinced myself nothings going on.  But deep down it pops back up the maybes.  Is this normal should I take is word for it 

  • Hi  

    Good to see you pop up again. How are doing? Hope everything went well with your check up.

  • Hi Sarah.. been on a couple of times but it was very quiet.. maybe a good thing though! 

    Check up was fine.. just need to get used to the 3 monthly thing now I suppose. First one is always the worst though as you are never quite sure what to expect and there is always the risk they may blindside you. 

    Apart from nerve damage in my leg I am recovering well and the fatigue is much much less now.

    How are you doing??

  • The group has been pretty quiet recently, so I pounce on a name I know to see how they’re doing! So glad your check up went well-it’s always a big relief to get the first one out of the way. 

    I have moved from 3 monthly checks to 4 monthly and expected a call by the end of April. That hasn’t happened so maybe I’ve actually moved to 6 monthly without them telling me! 

    How are you coping with the nerve damage in your leg? I do have a lot of issues with my right leg, but not sure why. Other than that I’m doing fine thank you. Still go to my bed very early though! Joy

  • Aww good that you are moving to longer between check ups. The leg is a proverbial pain in the bum. Was a dead leg for 3 months but now looks like it wants to comeback to life. Not painful just very uncomfortable with electric shocks going down my thigh and very sore to touch. In the grand scheme of things it's a small price to pay xx

  • I am fed up of leg pain-I spent today at a funeral in my wheelchair and it’s so frustrating. But I could not have stood for the length of the service. I’ve not had a dead leg feeling, but more a very sore hip and into my groin.  Definitely a small price to pay to be here still though!

    • It does sound likely that it's nerve damage. I get pains radiating across my tummy and through my groin into my leg and I haven't had the traumatic surgery you have. Having to use a wheelchair must really make you feel  frustrated and defeated so you are allowed to be fed up. People think cancer is something they either cure or you are terminal. Nobody considers that for those of us who have had even successful treatment that it is something we carry around like a dead weight and have to find ways from within ourselves to make it all feel better.  Not always easy!
