Journal Entry for January 8, 2008 Mood
Tuesday, January 8, 2008

Well here I go first time on the journal.

Got hitched yesterday to my partner of 19 years - civil ceremony had a wonderul and memorable day.

Health wise feel awful two failed ops within 8 weeks and the next step is radiotherapy next month. Going for my next otrecide jab Thursday and also demanding to see the neuro surgeon as i have had an ongoing infection with a disgusting taste in my mouth despite three rounds of antibiotics.

I also keep having a nasty looking and thick bleeding discharge so god knows whats going on. My headaches and sweating are horrendous and my feet are startingt to resemble that of a clown - grown another shoes size to a ten now !!

This site is a fantastic form of support and I would like to thank everyone for their best wishes it really does inspire you to think that a few words of encouuragement can mean so much to someone.

Hope everyone keeps in better health and thank you all again   nick xxx

    Congrats on getting hitched! I wish you much happiness. You totally deserve it. Tell the doc all your concerns and don't sstop until you get answers. These doctors can be so evasive (especially when they don't have answers) Mish

    Sorry to hear you're still feeling so fed up, hope the injection has made you feel better.

    Congrats! Keep hanging in there...I agree with Mish, keep on your doctors... you are your own best advocate! Does that even make sense? Sorry ,running on little sleep! Now that you are married you can complain about your spouse on your journal.(that is what it is for you know) lol Stay Strong!
