New Mask to be made - anyone else ever experience this once treatment is started?

Hi Aly , Oddly my appt at the hospital was at 1pm. I went in after waiting at 2pm had procedure and was dismissed at 6:45 pm lol - no overnight bag for me , but then my fitting date was messed up so I literally was squeezed in and promptly shoved out , my original appt was 8am  , early fittings being the normal procedure for PEGS but that day they had me for booked for chemo and that  was priority to go ahead

Yes I’m confused why I have to go in overnight to be honest , thanks for the reply Jo xx

Maybe you are early on in the list? I was in overnight for my diagnostic panendoscopy but a day patient for the biopsy after my post treatment PET

Yes that’s what I’m thinking Dani , I hope so as I’m so anxious about after xx

JustJo Happy  birthday xx

Happy birthday Jo , let us know if you manage to get some cake down you , have a great day xxx

Hi Jo Happy birthday from me, this time next year you’ll remember this as a blip in your life

Wow, fortips to make ready brek , I’m impressed. I wish I could stomach them :( I’m barely managing anything, 1 weetabix, bit of muller rice that’s it all day, no appetite, made a lovely red pepper and lentil soup, too thick even blitzed right down. Im sure I’d feel better, mentally if I could manage more, 

goid to hear your stories, thanks x

Happy Birthday Jo xxx

Hi Jo, I finished my course of RT on Friday and had to have a new mask made  at the end of week 3 as I had lost some weight but also because the tumour was shrinking and they needed to be able to focus the beam better for the remainder of my treatment. 

It is a good feeling to be told the tumour is shrinking and reacting well to the treatment isn’t it. Makes all the side effects your encountering seem worthwhile.
