Brother Blades Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I am well on the road to recovery but I am still fatigued much of the time. Had a nasal feeding tube in but had that removed last Wednesday, still on 3 supplement drinks each day as I am mainly eating soft foods due to the damage done to my throat, things are improving though and I can now eat a more varied diet; my taste is slowly improving too as this had gone completely. Treatment was horrible and I very nearly didn't make it to the end of the 30 radiotherapy sessions, had to take a break as I had been admitted to the Beatson after the 2nd chemo (4 weeks in) because I was so ill. After a couple of days though I was able to go down to the treatment room to finish the radiotherapy. I have to mention that the Beatson and it's staff were absolutely phenomenal. I was admitted twice and they worked hard to get me back on my feet and encouraged me to keep going with the treatment.Glad to hear you are on the mend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fatigue will pass as long as you keep pushing yourself to do a little bit each day. (going for a walk is good) Make sure you do even when the bad days hit......don't be too downhearted about what you can't do and focus on what you can do. One step at a time. The stronger you get the less the effects of fatigue affect you. Sorry to hear your treatment was tough but thankfully you completed it. That's a big positive. Gambatte!

Not really, I know how much booze I bought therefor it’s easy to know how much of it I drank. I’m not bragging about how much I drank, I’m just stating facts here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrshire_nomad Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 One of those ‘catch a predator’ Facebook posts popped up on my Facebook (honest,) and I’m having a watch when a member of the public demand that they ‘pay peado hunters doctor’s wages.’ Absolute scenes. You know the rules!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alta-pete Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 When at work in Glasgow I park my car in the basement under the Thistle (now Doubletree) Hotel on Cambridge St. The European Athletics (or something) are on in Glasgow for the next two weeks. Today alone, I have bumped into the Irish, GB and Italian women’s cycling teams. Yowsers. Is all. [emoji7]And no, no pics. Yet... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
