Been in hospital since Weds morning. Rocked up to chemo and they admitted me, could hardly walk, aenemic, and dehydrated. Ended up with 3 units of blood that night and lots a saline. Home late this afternoon (Friday). Have a mouth full of ulcers as well. LOL Just all the little things. Results of tests were stable, no more new growths or lesions,It hasn't spread anywhere else they can see and one or two may have shrunk slight on the liver. So I consider that reasonably good news. The specialist came and saw me in the ward. He wants to review the actual scan himself with the radiologist and will see me again in 2 weeks.He seems to be very thorough.I actually have a week off the chemo, so not attached to anything at all at home at the moment. A strange feeling to get used to because I have had the 5FU bottle attached 24/7 for the last 13 weeks now. Will be having another Gastroscope in the next week or so as well. My legs a little better today, very marginally. But if that little bit better happens each day then after a few days I will feel much better, here's hoping. Here's to a new day tomorrow. Cheers Vicki
