The Lass had her 2nd infusion of this special chemo to which she had an extreme negative reaction so they kept her in but in the night her heart rate rose to 220 and she was transferred to ITU where she and the medical team are now fighting for her life
Glad to hear your news Malc, we must all keep fighting - sod it!
Best wishes to both Lancs and your Lass and of course Red too. Appreciate how tough it is for all of you, your families and all others struggling at this difficult time. Fingers crossed firmly for all of you.

Thinking of you both. My bestie in Southampton has lymphoma and during her time with it has been in ITU a few times. Sending you both all the best wishes I can x
there has been a slight improvement but she is still in ITU and there is a long way to go before she is stabilised and we can again think about her cancer treatment. Thank you all for your kind words it does help

Small steps = positive steps. Best wishes to your lass and to you as well.

Glad to hear she’s had some improvement. Is she in Southampton? They’re very good there. sending lots of good wishes to you both.

I was planning on being happy for RM (I guess we all know that knowing you aren't being given the full picture can make your head dwell on the worst, and when the subject is cancer, that goes into overdrive) but then Lancashire had is own wallop to contend with, so things are shite again. All my best wishes to you, RM, Lancashire Lad and Lass, and everyone else fighting this horrid disease.

Amen to that, ks.
We're all thinking of you guys and gals as you fight your battles.
Thought I would update on what happened with the oncologist this afternoon. Latest Scan showed legions just slightly bigger than when measured in January . As I didn't start chemo until May, he suspects it is smaller than when I started chemo, certainly no worse. Therefore, he thought chemo was doing its job (bearing in mind, the legion is only controllable, not curable).
Agreed to continue chemo Another scan in mid-September, and then decide what to do.

So probably relatively good news xx
Your update is much appreciated. redman, so thank you.
Hope the chemo isnt too awful for you but the end result is what counts, I guess.
Mr F has had a couple of issues recently whch are being explored via MRI scans , the latest today. Follow up appt with the Consultant in 2 weeks' time.
Hopefully might see you both at the Assembly Halls again before too long.
Some good news. The lass, in her bed, was wheeled out of ITU and into an oncology ward. The initial scare is over but she has a long way to go, the main concern is whether she can resume her chemo as like Redman it is controllable not curative However it is positive which is something we all need.

Redman - that is goodish news
So glad to hear the lass is out of ITU. Hopefully they’ll resume chemo with one that she doesn’t have a bad reaction to. It’s a bit hit and miss with how people react to different chemotherapy but I’m sure they’ll find one that works for her x
