Chemotherapy schedule

Now I have a clear view of the chemotherapy dates, they are expected to be (depending on side effects)

1st March
15th March
29th March
12th April
26th April
10th May

It seems like I will feel like hell for two days or so following these days and sleep like a log for a further two days, then my condition will recover right up until the next shot, depending on side effects and infections.

That may help some of you understand when I might be able to talk to you and when it is best just to leave me alone. Any work calls that I want to take part in we will try to schedule just ahead of the next dose of chemo as I am likley to be at my best at this time.

At the end of this run of chemo then I will have a PET scan, if it is all clear I may be able to scamper off depending on the trial random selector, but most likely I will get a further set of chemo and radiotherapy which will take about another two months, dates to be confirmed later.

Cheers

Gerry

Hi Matthew, I feel fine but the doctors have to give me some medicine to sort out this "tumor" thing which will make me go baldy and be a bit sick for a while. Holly and Poppy say Hi, they are watching american idol so may leave you a note later
