Wow Information Overload !!!

Today was full on I had the oncologist appointment that would determine my treatment 


So today started at 8:00am in to have an injection on one side of the hospital then off to opposite end to see the Oncologist at 9:00am and I was fortunate enough to be dealt a rare aggressive so the comment from the Oncologist "Were gunna hit you hard and give you the strongest Chemotherapy we have" yeah for me I am most certain to loose my hair and be very sick. 


Then it was a bite to eat and waiting for the bone scan at 1:00pm I went down a little earlier to see if I could get in and went straight in - 40mins in the machine still nearly falling asleep it was back to the other end of the hospital and back to the oncology for the introduction to chemotherapy at 2:00pm that went for an hour and a half so it was very tiring and a little bit of information overload. I will be on a combination of three drugs that is called TAC this is the harshest that they have. 


I have my appointments booked and I am booked in for the first Chemotherapy session and it starts on Tuesday 18th October cheers to my new challenge. 


October 15th - I will post some pictures of me just before I am transformed.
