    Hi all.
    I have got my referral through to see Prof. Jackson at Newcastle Freeman hospital next Tuesday. I don't know if I should be excited or worried :-/ Hopefully I'll come away with more information and maybe a treatment plan 🙂
    I just got my latest PP results they're down from 41 to 36 not a big movement but in the right direction – not enough to get excited about I've been there before.

    All the best everyone
    Andy

    Hi Andy,

    At least events are moving upwards and onwards, to coin Tom's phrase. I cannot see Prof Jackson not coming up with a positive action plan and your PP's dropping is a very positive stsrting point.

    I wish you the very best for your appointment. You deserve a good break, a break that leads to the next step… then hopefully it will be all systems go. 😎

    Dai.

    Hi everyone.
    Thanks for all the good wishes for my appointment on Tuesday. I must admit the closer it gets the more anxious I'm becoming 🙁 Anyway as they say worrying never changes anything so I'm trying to be as positive about it as I can be.

    Dear Teresa my back pain has eased off since my radiotherapy. So as long as I don't overdo things it's not too bad. Not that it takes much to overdo things. The rain has eased off here though I saw on the news tonight some parts of the country had some flooding today again.

    Helen my appointment on Tuesday is for 1pm does that fit with you being able to meet up for a coffee? I hope so.

    All the best
    Andy

    Hi Andy

    Slim says that why worry about it if you cannot change it,and he sleeps like a baby,it's me up in the middle of the night:-/

    It,s the unknown that is worrying,I am sure once you go,you will feel more assured,have you far to travel!!!
    Although Slim is on trials ,it was worrying to see no progress and very worrying,watching other people sail through chemo and go on to SCT,but he got there in the end,and so will you Andy,you are young and fit,

    So good luck.Eve
