CT scan results Day

Hope all goes well for you Mike……please let us know, hope it’s a good outcome but whatever the result we are here with you and for you.

love Jules xx

Hi All

 Every cloud ️ has a silver lining 

Maybe it's a sign but got to process my results and also my blood tests today haven't been as good as expected.

However if the b""""r is still here at least I am being closely monitored.

Staying positive because it's my way to cope.

My new ring tune maybe a cheesy pop song but driving back from the hospital singing S Club 7 reach for the stars, basically sums up my day.

Will keep you posted.

Mike

Sorry to hear your results weren't as good as expected there Mike.

Singing sclub7 ????? Terrifying....lol.

Ditto Del, whilst I share the positive sentiment of the mentioned song Mike …I am surprised at this on line confession!, I just hope to goodness that you weren’t doing the actions whilst driving!

Sorry things were not as good as expected, it’s great that you are staying positive and are being regularly monitored. 

Big hugs, Jules xx

Hi Deloo it's a not a good news  day. Our friend maybe still around playing hide and seek. However everything is within the guidelines and this is an extra scan  so fingers crossed and I still get monitored each month for bloods.

So singing my head off trying to sort out the chat with the consultant and go through everything with my wife ( she was brilliant saying right now calm down and take a step back ) positivity is the key.

My bloods show a very low level of cortisone which if I had shown symptoms of meant an admission to Hospital tonight just so they could monitor me.

Anyway it's how you process the information.

Maybe a sleep and some S Club 7 tunes.

Dear oh dear Mike. Sounds like you got it real bad. Poor old kiddie.

Will they be monitoring your music intake  too ?

I think if i was your wife i'd be saying 'back away from the cd player' it doesn't have to be this way......lol.

You seem good at the 'staying positive'. So more power to you for that.Del.

And yes. One good thing about being diagnosed with cancer is that we are very well monitored/checked. So anything more will flag up soon enough to be acted on quickly.

A good sleep and some sclub 7 tunes. And a bit of dancing. What a night.....lol.

Hi Mike, just checking how you are feeling today? It was a lot to take in at your appointment. Hope you are okay. Love Jules. PS Your wife sounds amazing………Give her my love.xx

Hi Jules many thanks for your kind words honestly I tip my hat to you, as I said before I read lots of posts before and after my operation.

But never did I think to post anything just before or so soon after the operation.

I still am processing the information and I have called it Speed bump  also called my tumor Colin it helped me deal with the people who freaked out when you said Cancer. I don't know how big  speed bump is going to be it may be a small one or a huge one. I know that I can't control that.

I am back off to Hospital in the morning for more bloods and they are going to check everything as they wanted to admit me to monitor my levels. I did suggest that if my consultant had any concerns I would have been admitted straight away.

Yes my wife has been a rock but don't get me wrong she has struggled sometimes as looking after someone who you care about but can't help them. ( I hope that makes sense ) We have decided to remain positive, but we will have days when we may go and hide,reset our batteries and see how we go on.

Staying positive.

Mike

Hey Mike, just dropping in to share in sending you hugs and best wishes. I now have an S-Club 7 shaped earworm!! But I forgive you!! Love that about Speed Bump and Colin, we've named my Mike's tumour Splodge. Blame me for that one!!

Sorry to hear there are more bumps in the road, but very glad you are finding ways to feel positive. Will be thinking of you as you go through your test and checks. Was good to hear what Deloo said, the upside of the cancer diagnosis is the being well monitored. Easy for me to say, but I certainly am glad to hold on to that positive for my husband. Thank you Deloo!

From previous experiences, I am picking up an old habit of writing down one good thing from each day. On the more rubbish days, I have something to look back on. Again, easy to say, my health issues are vastly different...but just sharing in case it's any use to you or anyone else passing by.

With very best wishes to you Mike, and gratitude for your posts,

SleepyD

Hi SleepyD thanks had a good weekend not really monitoring the posts but had a off day as I am slowly getting back to work, frustrating that I am to justify my emotions, seriously but I am sorry if my tolerance of people is really low.

As my new motto is stay positive I will recharge/reset/ crack on as my way of dealing with it.

I definitely agree about making notes as you probably feel like that you understand things more. 

I also think that your energy levels rise and fall as some days we all feel like hiding under the duvet. Also having a little cry or a scream, a rant at the TV or maybe just sleep.

Sorry about the earworm I hope you are both coping and understand that Mike is in probably a much better place. It's not easy for you because of your illnesses, but it will get easier he will recover and fingers crossed you also get to a better place.

Maybe a should stay away from cheesy pop songs. I think if you name it it's a joke that only you both understand as what's a speed bump is a common phrase but it gives you a giggle.

Mike
