Another shock
I have been unable to post due to being very poorly since before Christmas. I had a mastectomy before Christmas and was told everything was o.k. But January this year the pain in my chest and back was getting so bad I thought the operation had upset the vasculitis and thought it would settled. My GP

Results good for first time!
Went to see the doc on Friday and finally seeing my lifestyle changes paying off, have now lost 4 1/2 stone (2 still to go but getting there), blood sugars better than they have ever been and even exercising and to be honest in a lot of ways have not felt so good for a long time. My last bloods were

Bladder Removal Surgery in Las Vegas
I am currently undergoing chemotherapy treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer. Upon completion of chemo, I will need to have my bladder removed. I have decided to go with ileal conduit (stoma with bag for life) surgery rather than a neo-bladder construction. My oncologist has recommended I go

Jaccuzzi or not?
I had a mastectomy 3 months ago and am due to go on my annual holiday. What is the advice re jacuzzis? I have been advised that saunas/steamrooms are out of bounds but wondered if it is ok to sit waist deep in a jacuzzi? It is one of my few holiday pleasures but I don't want to be silly and invite

Rib pain months after radiotherapy
Evening all, just wondering whether anyone else has/is experiencing any random pains, I say random but think entirely related to radiotherapy. On my right side, mastectomy side, I've been getting discomfort when stretching at bottom of ribs, there's nothing to see, no marks or swelling. Any shared experiences

Low follicles count and Size!
So I was sort of breezing through the process with a positive and laid back attitude. I had seen a couple of friends experience the highs and lows, but I thought if I was relatively relaxed I would be in better place for things to work. I have no known fertility issues but I managed to marry an older

Keep my bladder...for now
Just had interesting talk with my consultant who points out throughout my bladder cancer history (from January 2014) my Cystoscopy biopsies have been showing decreasing levels of cancer over the period. Now it shows NO CANCER. This means I can keep my bladder for now and just have further periodical

Saw my surgeon today....
Had appointment this morning, not seen my surgeon since my last inflating of expander in January, she examined me and was really pleased with how my mastectomy scar looks after having had radiotherapy, she said it looks like we've got away with it, although radiotherapy is the gift that keeps on giving

Radical Cystectomy and Neo Bladder Update.
Well, it was a week ago today since my surgery. I'm still in hospital, but feeling pretty good. The pains and soreness are subsiding, and walking around the ward at a gentle pace. The doctors are visiting daily and checking my 4 bags for outputs. The only draw back ive had was yesterday. One of the tubes
