Big Trip Aroung the Block on Hold
Permalink  

After battling a Prostate & UT Infection with very very high White Cell count for the last 4 months, I was given the all clear on last Wed, However the Doctor has discovered another serious condition from a CT scan  (which had been taken the week before) an Oesophageal Cancer has appeared, he is arranging a gastrocopy biopsy for early next year, until we get the results the BIG TRIP has been put on hold.

Sorry to hear that OB.  Still it's better to have these things seen to before you go away than have something happen while you are so far from your own doctors.

I am sure the outcome will be positive.

Blue has to have a gastroscopy every 2 years for the same condition and with the medication he has been put on has managed to keep things in control.

All the best and we WILL see you on the road at a later date.

Really sorry to hear that OB....but much better to find out now and have it treated.

The delay in plans will make you appreciate it all the more when you get out there.

Looking forward to meeting up with you sometime.

Sending lots of positive vibes your way.

Cheers. Pam.   smile smile smile
