Hi all, I've just been to my first forum talk today. Would just like to thank maz and everyone for all the hard work they must do to set these talks up. I found it all very informative as I've only been diagnosed 4 months ago with E.T and has been a rollercoaster of emotions.

Maz loving the blue hair. Thought you were very colour coordinated with the blue background too.

Thanks and best wishes lainy.

Thought I would touch base with you Lainy1. I was just diagnosed in April with ET myself. How are you feeling??

Hi, I find some days better than others. I have a great deal of bone pain even although my platelets ha e came down by 1million. Had 3 day long headache last week that floored me. My heam put my hydroxy up to three at the weekend now and the usual two during the week. Still off my work bit hope to go back in two weeks time. How are you dealing with it ? Have you been put on meds ECT.

Yeah,they were saying the next one will be in the beatson as they have had it at kirklands the last two years. Was good to see older people there who have lived with it for over 23 years. Hope I live with it till a ripe old age,relatively healthy 🤗

Hi Lainy, it was lovely to meet you, I thoroughly enjoyed the forum, it was a great afternoon, and all the speakers were great, such interesting topics, I think we could have been there all day listening to them and I am glad that you found it helpful. Glad you like the hair. Best wishes, Maz
