Dan's thread

I must have arrived at the same time. It was around 2017 I think.

Yes, it was recommended to me here in 2013 when a kitten and my six box system didn’t gel well together. The Devialet sounded superficially good as it has excellent mid range and clarity, however bass and depth of soundstage lack. I think I found it a good choice as I also changed speakers from Ovator 400 (which didn’t suit the Devialet at all) to Atohm GT1. The ovator is a bit ‘flat as well’. Moving to NC has felt like the best of all worlds. Excellent balance, detail, soundstage and timing. Yes, happy to have made the move back.

Just seen consultant and news is mixed. Another area of cancer has been identified on the right lung close to the heart. Awaiting treatment options which look like possible radiotherapy. Lesion is 10mm.

I haven’t processed this information yet mentally or emotionally. Other area which remains unchanged is 24mm lesion on liver. They were looking at liver resection.

Now looking at lung radiotherapy possibly focusing on the small area with deep penetrating focused radiotherapy. Should find out in 2 weeks what they will do next!

It’s a minor set back. The oncologists are on it.

Will feel better once I know what treatments they propose. So for me, two lesions popped up and have now become benign or not relevant.

New lesion has come in. It will either be treated or become benign.

They can do things and the lesion is small. Remaining positive and listening to Led Zep 1 vinyl.

Just keep spinning the discs man!
