We saw a consultant @ Clatterbridge yesterday & were told that without the palliative chemo he probably wouldn't see Christmas. They did bloods to look for bio markers & are going to arrange an urgent CT scan to see if its already spread since his last scans 6 weeks ago. His voice is huskier & weaker, he's got no appetite or energy & his pain is worse. He's also lost 5kg in 10 days despite me trying to fatten him up. He has been prescribed steroids to see if they help with the appetite & pain.
