3 Months Cancer Free

For the past 3 months we have been living life without cancer, which feels really good.  I may well not be cured (35% probability according to statistics) but for the past 3 months there has been no hospital visits, no cancer related medication and just getting on with life.

The last blood tests showed a flat CEA (1.6) so I get at least another 3 months cancer free.I still suffer from fatigue, and may forever, apparently.  That is a normal side affect of chemo and is not a big deal as far as work (home and employment) is concerned, but for me personally it is quite frustrating.  However if I had not gone through the surgery and chemo last year, I would be in a very bad place now, or resting peacefully 6 foot under, so I am quite happy with the treatment.

The blood tests did show a high GGT, I spoke to my GP about it, he said it was not unusual in otherwise healthy patients and nothing to worry about, considering the abuse my liver has had from chemo and surgery. 

We are now settling into our new house, way smaller than the old place, but very comfortable for us and thanks to selling at a good price (above valuation) and buying at a good price (below valuation) we are in a comfortable position, come what may.

The whole sale, purchase and move process went well, all on time and under budget, a credit to good project management and two old pedants....

Work is also going well, I have reduced my accountability and am now focused on work which is close to my heart, I really am impressed with the support I have had from Meridian.

No news will be good news, there should be no updates for another 3 months.
