Seems that one of the things that they discourage when you are on Chemotherapy is tooth cleaning! I had an appointment set for next Thursday at Dr Bauer's so had to reschedule for today. So, the hygienist was the first 'stranger' that I have had to tell about the diagnosis. Very strange feeling having to tell someone! I hardly understand it myself and when she asked details it was hard to decide what to say - I don't want to go into all the details, but she asked about the diagnosis (whether it was because of symptoms or because of a routine test), so that was easy to answer.
Tomorrow is the picc line installation. Went through that before after the last shoulder operation, as I recall it wasn't very pleasant, and they had to have 2 or 3 goes at it before they got it in position correctly. Hopefully it will be less eventful this time.
