As a cancer survivor I have to go for regular scans after finishing my last round of chemo. Every 6 months the anxiety rollercoaster begins, been very lucky for 2 and a half years till this afternoon.
As some of you may be know 'regular consultations with oncology specialists' Post-Covid consist of a phone call once every six months. With a Nurse. 40 miles away.
We go through the same dance each time, she has next to nothing to tell me beyond my bloodwork is pointless as I have Arthritis so bad they can't read my blood for cancer markers, In essence CT scans are all they can look at to see what happening in my case. It takes 5 to 10 minutes every time and it's like pulling teeth.
So this time they can see something on the scan, "need to see you in the next 6 weeks". Bollocks.
Safe to say I'm at a fairly low curve on the ride, it will pass I don't tend to get overly maudling or depressed but please forgive me if I'm a little sharper than usual for a while.
If anyone has a similar experience and doesn't want to post here I'd appreciate some perspective so feel free to PM me if anyone wants to.
Wouldn't mind a performance from my Team at the weekend to be honest.
Anyone else watching these with greater than normal interest?
WBA doing the job so far but is it ok to want Cardiff to win? feels wrong. The 3rd of October feels earlier than usual for the buttock clenching to begin.
