Results of biopsy and CT scan today...

You just know when something isn't right and I did today as my notes were on the reception desk and the registrar kept bypassing them...

Saw Dr C and he said the biopsy showed cancer in the lymph nodes in my neck and one in my armpit, radiologist report for the CT scan showed nothing significant in either my liver or lungs (so still there but minute after the chemo).

There is also an area of 'cancer' on my T6 vertebra (between my shoulder blades). Come to think of it I have had really mild discomfort there - or is that me now just thinking?

The plan of attack is daily radiotherapy for 3weeks to the neck/armpit area  and one shot of radio to the spine area.

Planning for this to be before we go away and then the actual treatment when I get back.

Also need to have a mammogram on my one remaining breast as there is 'thickening' by the scar but that maybe just what it is and nothing more serious.

I did say to Dr C so is this it are things are hotting up and he said well yes but nothing that isn't treatable at the moment.

He said he wants to keep me on all the current drugs and did think about another chemo (capecitabine) but would rather leave that until really necessary.

So not good news but not disastrous and the bit of positive is no new or larger liver/lung tumours.

Roll on Disney to focus on nicer things...
