Dan's thread

I hope that they get things under control very soon Pete. I found that my chemotherapy got worse and worse as it went on. Once finished I was back to normal after about 4 weeks. It’s a marathon and the thing to do is to keep sight of the finish line.

You will get through this hurdle. Sending you my best ! :muscle:

Yeah I think the additional 30 years makes it a bit tough. My first 5 chemo (apart from a minor hiccup with the first one) have been trouble free just the usual let down after the roids have finished.

I’m in good hands and will get through this

Cheers.

I sincerely hope you ALL do.

Incidentally Pete, I guess you’re referring to ‘steroids’, but over here “the roids” usually refers to an entirely different medical issue… :ring: :fire: :open_mouth:

Hi Dan.

Just on me jollies and wondering how you are?

Keep it loud, keep it funky…what’s the point of owning a V8 and pottering around…Naim pre & amps always play better after 11 on the dial :smiling_face::sunglasses:

So looking at two ops potentially back to back. Lung resection followed by Liver resection.

I am doing great! Playing the V8 loud and strong!

Loving the system.

Keeping busy with working on building jobs and doing work on front and side of my house.

Much better thanks, haven’t had a heat spike in almost 10 days. Now just have my stem cell transplant starting around the 9th of September to look forward to (not :grin:).

Like you it’s a long and tough battle but our only choice. Keep us posted. :+1:

Best of luck for that procedure Pete, you’re sounding more upbeat and we’re all rooting for you.

Good luck with the stem cell transplant. How does that work? Thinking of you mate.

No treatments for me since chemo. Been a while now. Feel pretty good. But things will change with ops. See if they can do them first. Got some scans and then see where we are.

You’ll need to keep yourself safe this winter, influenza A and B caused huge problems here more than the current strain of covid. Getting the A version knocked me around for over 2 months.

As for the stem cell thingy, this link explains it better. I will still require chemo every 3 or 6 months to help keep me in remission.

Good luck to both of you and hope your ops/treatments result in good outcomes; your positive attitude is an inspiration.

It is amazing technology and reads almost like science fiction and not medicine truth.

I am sure Sue will have you under control during this time.

My very bestest wishes to you and Dan

You’ve a beautiful LP12 Mike. If (big if) I’m going to buy hifi again, it must be an LP12 like yours. I’m not attracted to power-supplies at all.
