I thought it was about time I updated you all on my progress.
I came out of hospital on Friday and on Friday night i had my first serious bout of pain from the tumour. By the time the Locum doctor arrived the pain had eased. Luckily I've been pain free since then. Sunday sees the start of 2 days of nausea and vomiting so another Doctor was called out. He gave me a prescription for an anti vomiting drug and it seems to have done the trick. Duncan Howarth (benalman) was visiting me at the time and the Doc asked if he was my son. God I must have aged badly! Feel pretty good today so I hope it continues although my energy levels are non existent.
Credit to my daughter and her partner nothing has been too much trouble for them and I know I would never manage without them.
Just to add well done to Tomgoodun in taking down DTD. A fitting result under the circumstances.
Sorry to hear you are not feeling to well at present Dale, hope things improve gradually and you get all the medication you need.Have you got any dates for your chemo yet? Don't worry if you would rather not post on here, I think folk would like to keep in touch with your progress, I know it has helped me to put things on my story thread, folk are different though and I would respect your decision either way.
Thanks for the mention re Dtd, I am running quite well on the felt lately,don't mention my name to FlashJonny though, I just luck boxed and knocked him out the £3 b/h this aft( I fin 2nd)

That is the best news I've heard all week - thanks for the update, Bob, & well done Dale.
Well that was an eventful week. I went back to hospital a an outpatient to have a bile duct drain removed on the 10th and all hell broke lose. What the hospital didn't tell me was that having medical kit removed can have the same effect as having something put in; ie your antibodies attack it thinking it is a new infection so everything else is undefended.
Within half an hour of having the drain removed I'm home but shivering, having sweats , pains and vomiting. Doctor arrived and promptly called an ambulance. This was the worse I'd felt since being diagnosed and I honestly thought I was in serious trouble. Luckily steroids and slow release mor phine soon sorted me out but I just wish they had told me this could happen.Seeing my daughter looking so worried was not easy to handle.
Thankfully all is well now and I feel as good as possible.

Doesn't sound good! But glad things have picked up.

How are you coping now, Dale?
Honestly, I've no idea how I would cope in your spot.
Not sure how I'd cope with people moaning & groaning about poker matters, that's for sure.
Bear up mate, you can beat this.

Hi Daggy,
Hope you are bearing up.
Like everyone else, I don't really know what to say, but I do think it important that you know we are thinking of you, & you are in our minds.
