Well it's been forever since I told my consultant that my back was hurting. I know he sent me for the MRI but in august he told me he was referring me to the Bone Man.
Here we are just getting into October and I still haven't heard from this mysterious bone man. I do know my back hurts when I sit, stand and walk. What I don't know is what he is going to tell me that I can do to bring some relief to it.
Ho Hum, I am back at Cancer Clinic on the 8th October so watch this space as they say.

OUCH !!!
Well I went to hossy for my monthly blood check, I was determined to find out what the results of my MRI scan is. The scan was in June and despite me asking in the July clinic at which I was told that they can take some time but my stand in doc would chase them and let me know.
It got to August clinic and still no word, so I made my mouth go a little. This time it was my own specialist that said he would chase it and ring me. Ring me he did, but he said that rather than tell me over the phone he would tell me in clinic if we didn't meet before. but there was an unusual degenerative condition there that he could see. He would prefer a bone man to look at it.
I have spent all of August wondering what he means, what is degenerative and what spinal condition. When was the bone man going to contact me and what the heck does all of this mean. My head has been in and out of me like you wouldn't believe.
Today the heamo asked as soon as I walked in have I seen the bone doc..... no i replied should I have he hasn't contacted me. do you know what it said about your scan he asks............. no you wouldn't tell me on the phone i said. Ah.... he said. well, it looks like the disc at the top of your spine is pushed in and resting on your spinal cord and there are three discs in your lumber region that are crumbling. But the good news is it has nothing to do with your Myeloma.
Imagine my head now. What is my future. It gets harder to fight and fight. I thought being told that you have had four clear months of this Cancer I was doing well. But it looks like you are given something good then its grabbed from you and you get something bad to deal with again.
OK that's it I've had my rant
