I’d like to say a very big thank you to Court in particular, for your advice and support. I had my appointment for a biopsy yesterday. I mentioned that I’d had my covid booster the day before my MRI, and 3 days before my PET scan, and, as a result, didn’t have a biopsy! It seems that as you suggested the  nodes had reacted to the booster, and nothing sinister was found. I am incredibly grateful for your advice, as I would not have known to mention it otherwise. I’m interested to know if you have support? 

  • Hi

  • Well Court yet again you were right! I spoke with the liver surgeon, and he is arranging an appointment for me to go and have a fitness test, a meeting with the anaesthetist, and a meeting with a surgeon. The latest they expect that to happen is next Tuesday. So things are going at quite a pace. I was given the choice of surgery or chemotherapy. We agreed that surgery is my best option, and that should happen within a month. Wow! So chuffed right now.

  • Fantastic news  . What a relief for you and it’s so good knowing the exact plan for you .

    This will soon be in your rear view mirror and back to no evidence of disease very soon .

    Just delighted to hear this .

    Best foot forward as my mum likes to say .
