June 2011 appointments

Things have been quieter for me for a bit now. I have seen my Radiologist, Tim Sevitt, who is happy with the treatment he gave me. The lumps in my back seem harder but he says he thinks it is scaring; hmm, not so sure. Also the lump in my side is about the same size so he says he will leave my appointment open for my Oncologist to sort out.

My blood test have not changed much, my eGFR is still 19, and will probably not recover any more than that as it has now been six months at this level. This means I cannot enter any drug trials. I just hope some trials are successful and I can get treatment once they are proved, if I live that long.

I have the Race for Life in two weeks and not really looking forward to it as my breathing has got worse. Still we are taking a wheelchair just in case I get into difficulties and the girls have said they are happy to push me if necessary. We are having a short break first so I will be as fit as possible for the race.
