Giving Up/Cutting Down Alcohol Thread Part 17

13/31 for me today. 

Haematology appointment yesterday showed an increase in red blood count compared to September, so I have to increase the chemo dose (at home/capsule format) slightly and follow up in two months.

Satchmo, hope the increased chemo dose does the trick, that sounds stressful x 

Also hope Cuppa's scan went OK.

It looks as though Barny has been banned again unfortunately.

Sending you very best wishes Satchmo1 and to Cuppa

13/31 for me, working overtime again tonight 😔 but the extra ££s at the end of the month are always very useful

10/14 please

Hi everyone, I hope you are ok Satchmo? 

Today's scan was revealing. My pancreas, liver, kidneys are all fine and normal. My liver function blood test was normal last time it was taken. I was surprised and I’m still planning on cutting down as I want things to remain that way. 

My ovaries are small which would explain my menopause symptoms. 

I have a gastroenterologist appointment this weekend, so it could be digestive related. 

Anyway it’s good news in some ways but the pain/discomfort is still unexplained. 

8 days for me please.

Hi everyone,
Cuppa, sounds like your making progress to finding out what is going on. 
Satchmo, hoping the new meds do their job
Working all day from home and an evening meeting,  I have only done 1171 steps all day! 

13/31 for me

Pleased to hear positives from the scan Cuppa. 

Hope the change to chemo meds comes without side effects Satchmo and you feel ok.

Declaring early for today Friday (a rare AF Friday for me) so 6/15 please.

12/27 for me please and 10 days in a row  very happy with that!

@CuppaTea it's good that there are positives, hopefully now they can start ruling things out and move towards a diagnosis.

@satchmo1 hope the change in meds helps and isn't too hard going. 

Coveredinbees!!!!

13/15 please, went out last night and drank coke, weird, that never happens.
