Hi Bluemonday I too was diagnosed with fatty liver .Am on letrozole and palbacilib, was so worried, I was referred to a liver specialist to put my mind at rest .He said he felt it was the letrozole that had caused it .He did some tests , and said it was nothing to worry about .He suggested, if I could lose half a stone , it would help .Am still working on that .Hope this helps x ...

Hi Ramade well got my results on spinal tumour, it’s still growing, it wasn’t what I wanted to hear .Hospital want to remove it next month , am not rushing into it .I would rather have another scan after Xmas and I guess if it’s grown again I have no choice .Its such a challenging op , which could leave me with all sorts of problems.Also I have to stop my cancer treatment, a few weeks before the op , and stay off them until I heal .A lot to think about .I have my pet-ct scan October for my cancer , to see if it’s stable .One thing at a time I think .On a happier note , my daughter is having a baby , due date today .Am so excited, takes my mind off things .Enough about me , how are you doing  hope things have improved xxx ...

Hi Annie still not sure what’s going on wiith spinal tumour.Consultant , hadn’t even got report of my MRI in July .He had images , but thought it possibly hadn’t got bigger .So very disappointing, to travel all that way , and still no further forward .He promises me he will write to me , within 2 weeks with actual measurements.So will wait and see x ...

Hi Ramade what a disappointing day , travelled up to London, and my mri hadn’t even been reported on .it wasn’t my usual consultant, he was rather embarrassed, and I said it had been a pointless journey for me , and he agreed with me .Waiting for results, is so stressful.He promises to phone me within 2 weeks, as he will chase them up . We will see .Hope your feeling better in yourself Ramade.Take Care x ... View more
