Scared
Had breast cancer in 2010 with chino and radiotherapy, also a lumpectomy. Went recently about a sciatic nerve problem and ended up having scans which found I had metastatic cancer in my back. Have lost over a stone in weight through not eating. Very depressed and anxious. Nhs have given me the run

Unit (ICU) doctor who also has a private practice.

Appointment with Radiologist
Attended hospital today for first appointment with radiologist who advised that I could have a “one off “ dose of radiology to hopefully shrink the tumour on my right lung to prevent it spreading into the spinal cord (it has attached itself to my spine already). Have to attend the hospital tomorrow

Dry eye, mouth, skin. Sjrogens Syndrome
I use Vaseline
Intensive
Care
Aloe Vera Lotion ( $11.95 at Big W for 1.5 litres) on my whole body, after showering . I smear the whole body with this and it really helps.. moisturise the skin. I was using Sorbelene Lotion before this but have a better result with the Vaseline Aloe Vera one.

I was admitted to
Intensive

in the summer, with Acute Onset Chronic Liver Failure. I seem to be stabilising now. I'm going to seek medical advice on the circulation symptoms,obviously but I wonder if there is any known link or if anyone else experiences this.

Prayers needed...
He has told the doctors he does not want to see his wife or his daughters until he is out of
intensive
care
. He does not want us to remember him like he is now. So please pray for him and pray for me. My stress level has gone through the roof.
