u have proper made me smile today i feeel quite relaxed npw ty i know we have a rollercoaster to come but i will definitely be thinking of the things u have said on the down day ((hugs)))
Any time you feel you need to post do so as I will be around…… and I am sure that some of the others will pack up on your posts.
hi we got a call yesterday they want another biopsy on the 28th its taking ages its driving us insane he was up all night coughing any remedies to help the cough
As I will always say the diagnosis of Lymohoma takes much longer than you would ever want but this is often down to how ‘different’ Lymphoma is to other types of cancer…… can’t help with remedies for the cough…… but as I also have asbestosis and especially during treatments I found I slept better if my upper part of my body was raised….. so an extra pillow but we often had a few blocks of wood under the top legs of the bed to raise it up…… do talk with his clinical team/GP to see if they have any suggestions ((hugs))
ty sorry for keep coming to u with all this but u have made the most sense xx
Happy to hear that what I post makes sense….. but do get back to me when things don’t make sense
