So I'm sat here all hooked up to my chemo, getting really bord. So I'm doing some blogging, this is my second today !
I went to see the specialist and have some bloods done yesterday. She says everything is going very well, my lumps are small bits of gravel (compared to the golf balls they were), and my White blood cell count is getting back to normal.
Today I'm having my 3rd of 6 chemo, and it's the same old shit, just seems to be going quicker !
So what does all this mean ? I hear you ask.
Well it could mean that this bout of leukaemia is beaten, and things are looking rosy.
But the reality is that this is just going to keep coming back, could be weeks, months or even years but it will be back. I guess has soon has I feel a lump somewhere, I start all over again.
The only way I have a chance of getting rid of this is by having the Stem cell/ Bone marrow transplant that I mentioned in an earlier blog, something which I'm not looking forward to, it's the month in hospital that will do my head in, But I suppose it's worth it.
Also the way the dates have fallen, i get to have my 5th and last chemo in the same month, August ! Looking forward to that month haha. Let's wait and see.
The planning of my bike ride from Lands end to John ogroats is coming together slowly. Just waiting for Marie Currie to put the details up so I can book my place. I'm looking forward to it, even though it's roughly a year away ! But a lot of training needs to be done from this September onwards, and I need a bike !
Anyway that's me for today, I've nearly finished my nuclear waste. Off home soon, and hoping these new anti-sickness tablets work this time round !
I am home now, feeling good at the moment.
Thank for reading
Offski.
