Hi All,

Just to say that I went for the results to my CT scan and outcome of the breast cancer treatment. The good news is the breast cancer is all contained no need for any other treatment other then the radiotherapy and tamoxifen........however all that has to wait as CT scan shows a nasty ovarian tumour.

I was told I would be having chemo to shrink the tumour before surgery, and then more chemo, however I will be admitted Monday to enable them to drain some of the fluid build up around my abdomen which has become so uncomfortable, unable to eat or breath properly when its at its worst.

All help and support, words of comfort deeply appreciated.
