Winter workhorse + Health update

Post by N4LLY » Wed Jan 24, 2024 9:21 am

Met the dental team Monday, nice bunch.
Discussed which teeth need to come out for Radiotheraphy purposes. There is far more involved than
i would have ever had thought, the serious dangers of bone diseas for example :o :cry: :cry:

They called me after they had all their internal meeting with my Cancer care Team.
The call came through yesterday and it's "A full dental clearance" ! So they are all coming out !! :?
A face to face consulatation being arranged for ASAP.
However, the surgery/operation has already been booked last week of Febuary, so again they are not hanging about.

For replacement / reconstruction i have alrteady put in an order for a full set of "Jurgen Klopps" :rofl:

Off to hospital tomorrow (Will give the Z4 the run out, roof down maybe) New PICC line dressing, check scheduling as it's got very busy
again now. PEG line insersion (Stomach feed tube) needs to be sorted soon, measured up for face mask date etc.

Feel ok this morning, so through the worse of round 2 :thumbsup: Taste buds seem to be broken.
This morning's coffee not tasting as it should ?? :?

Oh and good morning 8)

Really admire your spirit in maintaining a sense of humour despite all your problems. I've just had a year of chemo and radiotherapy and I know it's not always easy. All the very best to you.

    It's so difficult to know what to say except I admire how you are dealing with this and to wish you all the best with the treatment.

    Assuming that was the morning pic, it looks very early.

    Cheers ekimj10, Well done getting through to the other side :thumbsup:

    Cancer care gone into Top gear again.
    Radiotheraphy called, now they have the dental removal date, they are bringing everything forward.
    From 4th March :
    Chemo will be every Monday for 6 weeks.
    Radiotheraphy will be every day Monday - Friday for 7 weeks.

    So every Monday will get both :?

    Thanks again, you guy's for the support 8)

    It's good to know that they are cracking on with your treatment Sean, although it sounds like it will be something of an ordeal.

    And like others I'm impressed by your positive attitude to it all and wish you all the best. :thumbsup:

    Hope you manage to get the Z4 out tomorrow too. :driving:

    Wow, that's a proper sh*tstorm! :o

    I suppose living by the coast it goes with the territory!

    Good luck getting that lot off, and more importantly with the pump. :thumbsup:
