Have an MRI scan next Tuesday to see what's going on down there. Definitely something, as I'm getting more bloated and my innards are more erratic, though not in any great pain, more discomfort really.
Not sure if extra weight I've put on is the tumour expanding or just me pigging out. Difficult to say as always had a bit of a belly, but scan will reveal all. I feel this might be the beginning of the end for me and its a bit scary to think how bad I might get if cancer has spread elswhere. I suspect it has.
On a lighter note I had a lovely week in Cornwall recently with friends. Tiring, as we packed a lot in, visiting Padstow, Land's End and the Eden Project, Fowey and lots of pretty places in between. Also a lovely pub in Lostwithiel where we stayed. Had a few Cornish ciders and a great steak meal there. Local fish n chip shop and Chinese takeaway were great too. Another item crossed off my "things to do before I croak" bucket list, as never been to Cornwall.
Paid deposit for my solo trip to Isle of Man in October. Whether I make it or not remains to be seen. I will pay balance depending on scan results. I'll only lose £125 if I have to cancel.
I've just realised I've been living with this disease since June 2021 though reckon it's probably a lot longer, as I had bloating symptoms for years, but various ultrasounds never showed up any concerns, so I just assumed it was IBS. Maybe if it had been investigated more at the start with an internal...!
Perhaps my 2 covid jabs triggered cancer that was already there, when I started bleeding?
I will never know.
