This is nothing to do with arthur but i am off to the hospital today. I have had a swelling in my neck for over three weeks...not big but enough for me to ask i friend if i was imagining it last friday. I made an appointment on Monday and they said i needed to go back and see the specialist at hospital. Ok i thought being over cautious again. I got an appointment through yesterday for today. The speed at which they have fitted me i has just hit home and i must confess the thought of this blasted cancer returning again is not the best feeling in the world. I know that i am a ticking bomb and there is no cure but still does not prepare you for the return.
Right thats the neg **** out of the way.... probably just a blocked duct or something. Oh well must go and dry my hair and make myself body beautifully. Hope they don't want me to take my trousers off...not shaved my legs...GRRRRRR they look like hairy monsters. Will let you know how it goes...Fingers crossed.

    Wishing you the very best with your appointment today, Lupin . At least you did not have to wait long for a date and time because it is best to get it checked out. Hopefully it will be nothing to worry about.

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    I hope I'm not too late to wish you well, Lupin. For what it's worth, I had a neck scan recently for a lump. Verdict - an overactive jaw muscle! I fear this will be a topic of mirth at every family gathering for years.
    If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

    Hi folks your thought worked... the short version is the side of my neck which had rad on is ageing differently to the other side...it has some long name which i could not hold in my pea size brain as i was sooo releived he did not think it was cancer. The side with the swelling is normal. Checked mri scans that i hav had in the last few months....thank you god.
    Did ask about my back and hips...which have been playing me up but that is to do with the weather. But he did send me for xrays to check my pelvis and right hip. (He is just checking to make sure i donot have bone mets....) I am sure it is arthur as it does not hurt to touch which is the sign of bone cancer.... i can move and all i feel is scretching rather than pain...that start at night or the end of the day hen i am trying to get to slepp :lol::lol:
    So no news from him will be good news.....would have a drink but have work tomorrow...maybe tomorrow night...
    Phew...feel like a big weight has been lifted off my shoulders... going to stop rabbling on now.

    Oh I'm so relieved for you Lupin, what a stressful day, but thankfully all is well :grin: please rest now, please take things easy because the stress of today will have an effect, stress is food and drink to arthritis.
