Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Little by little, Ffosse. Sounds good so far.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

I've got a sore back, though. It's fine in bed and for the first couple of hours after i get up but then it flares up.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

You are the opposite to me then Ffosse! I get back ache when I lie down but it’s ok when I’m sitting or standing. I’m trying to settle it with paracetamol.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

I was told that my body core was weakened by the chemo and that the pain in my back and neck was from trying to support myself.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Nice to see an update Val. I don't always view this section. Hugs sent.

That sounds awful Dreamy. I was about to ask if you had strained your back.
Hugs sent to you too.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

I'm feeling fine today if a little sleepy. I finished my antibiotics so hope that my immune system picks up a bit.

Still nervous at nights before gong to sleep and have my 2 bags packed to go should I need them. Before the cancer I rarely ever got even a cold.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Hello Dreamy. I am glad you are feeling better.
Hopefully, things will improve at night. I can understand you feeling nervous. Just try and enjoy feeling better. You are always in my thoughts and prayers.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Thanks, Sweetie - just the appointment with my Consultant next Thursday to go - I should find out more by then how I'm doing overall, and at some stage I'll need a PET scan which is in a different hospital.

It's been an exhausting 6 months, though. I like this time of year - the nights start to lengthen a bit.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

Getting stronger one day at a time, sounds encouraging. Sending good vibes for Thursday's appointment and PET scan.

Re: I've had my chest x-ray

I am sure you will keep us all updated.
I am finding it incredibly hot at night.
I will need to google PET scan.
