I went for a CT Scan on Thursday to find out what is going on inside. I get the results in a couple of weeks and then have to decide whether or not to have more chemotherapy. I put the decision off last time I was at clinic, but I don't think I am going to be able to get away with that again!
I had decided earlier this year not to have anymore chemo, but things have changed a bit since then. The main difference is my bowel blockage has been sorted out and, although, the tumours are growing back in that area, they are not causing the same problems.
Quality of life is my main concern. I always feel very ill when having chemo and earlier this year I was told that it would only add a few months to my life. It was a hard decision to make, and I was feeling very ill anyway, but in the end I decided that it wasn't worth it.
Anyway, before I can make a decision this time, I will need to know how much longer would or could be added to my life and how ill the chemo would make me feel. I'll let you know my decision when I make it!
