Hi, dad got his staging although I’m not entirely sure what it means, they have said that they are hopeful that after a few rounds of chemo he can have radiotherapy with a hope to get rid of it
First round of chemo went well, he’s been tired but so far no other side effects. He’s had a week of the injections to boost his white cells and other than fatigue they have gone well too.
He has to see the consultant on Thursday before his next round starts, how often do you expect to see them ? No one has given him a schedule so obviously he worried as to why they want to see him already but I told him that’s probably normal?
He is worried obviously because things change so frequently every time he goes to the consultant its hard to keep up to date.
