Hi everyone hope everything is OK with you all,I just wanted to up date you all about my situation.

I'm in Derriford as I write this starting my process for my transplant, I arrived here on Thursday and started my chemotherapy that afternoon, unfortunately I had a little side effects which was a bad sore throat and a bad head acne, so I didn't sleep at all that night plus, the guy in the next bad had a bad night so much so his family were in from 1-2 am.

I'm doing good as of today, will be starting my chemotherapy shortly, so I get it done earlier than yesterday, so I can get ready for my transfer down to Truro,for the next stage which will be difficult as I've been told.

Take care everyone

  • Hi , yes it can be a two step forward one back journey but it is what it.

    Remember we also have our dedicated Stem cell transplants for blood cancers Forum where you can connect with lots of folks who have been on the SCT journey.

    Hold on tight and keep us updated.

    Hi Highlander thanks for your message, your so right about this treatment, I'm having chemotherapy as I write this,it seems to be going well plus after the chemotherapy I can go for a little walk.

    As you said it's going to be tough when I go back to Truro, feeling positive as much as I can and, yes I will keep you all up dated

    Thanks again
