Hello Everyone

More good news. My second MRI for the brain and my CT scan for my chest were clear again. My oncologist still cannot explain why and I wish you all had the same Onc. I am now going from 3 month monitoring to 4 months so i am on the right path.

The only problem now is I fell backwards on my back from sink height onto the lino whilst changing kitchen curtains and my back is in agony. (I wouldn't try this at home ladies ha ha). A small price to pay from having had brain tumours and lung cancer but I do worry about what I might have hurt inside. Probably an X-ray but giving 2 weeks to see.

All keep strong and stay warm.

Best wishes Hoggy

Hello hedgehoggy,

Great news on the results of your recent scans, it is always good to hear good news. Take care with climbing and get some help when hanging curtains you don't want to injure yourself and undo all the good work. If your back pain is not improving please make an appointment with your Gp.

Kind regards Roy Castle Helpline
