Feeling happy!

It's now 15th April 1 month and 1day after surgery, a month of ups and downs mostly feeling down with lots of worry about the future. Today we finally received some good news, sat in the waiting room is horrendous,butterflies in my stomach then we finally got called in, the usually questions how are you etc etc I mentioned the pain in my leg although he knew something as he noticed my struggle walking into the room, he said because of the previous ops I've had all in my pelvis area plus the radiotherapy it's likely that it's damaged the nerves and unfortunately it's not likely to improve but can  be managed with pain relief. I also mentioned that I'm so worn out constantly I have zero energy, this is all to do with anemia, normocytic hb should be over 110 and mine is 85 so we need to keep a eye on this, have to wait for blood results should hear in the next few days. Then came the good news the 'no visible residual disease and the resection margins were all clear' also a few days after surgery we were told some more bowel was taken away it looked 'suspicious' they weren't sure if it was 'new disease' or 'scar tissue' it was sent of to the lab and it was a 'big lump of scar tissue' phew such a relief. They still want to keep a close eye on me so the next few months I need to build myself back up I've lost nearly 3 stone in weight then more scans back end of year but for now everything is looking good. Long may it continue. I can't thank my consultant enough, proffesor S,so many people have said 'he's one of the best' I truly believe he is he's given me the chance to see my children grow up,can't wish for anything more than that.
