Saturday… not a good week!
Jan 13th 2007PeterMore treatment!
I’m sorry I haven’t posted for a while. There was a milestone on Thursday, which was t+51, but also the anniversay of my admission to Guy’s for the procedure. I suppose If I had known what 12 months later would be like, I would have been disappointed, but hey-ho – I have survived another year!
So to this week – I went into work for the first three days of the week, but as the week progressed, my mouth became very sore (imagine eating stinging nettles!) and I took Thursday and Friday off – and spent most of the days in bed. (I am in bed now good old trusty laptop!)
One of the problems with the sore mouth is that it makes eating almost impossible. I do have the high calorie milk shake drinks, so I am getting some nourishment.
I am off to Guy’s again on Monday, blood checks and an echocardiogram. With a bit of luck I might get some oxygen too! I hope the GCSF will start having an effect – certainly once the neutrophils start increasing, the mucositis goes quite quickly/
So – through gritted teeth – onwards and upwards!!
