Hello Blog,
Apologies for not being in touch before now.
I went to see my oncologist yesterday, for my 2-monthly review. All is on track. I need to stay on antivirals, antifungals, and prophylaxis against pneumocystis pneumonia for another few months yet. The oedema I’ve been suffering, and the tingling when I nod my head or bend forward, are side-effects of high dose chemotherapy. There has been (expected) damage to my testes, so I’m infertile, and I’m low on testosterone. So I’ll begin some testosterone replacement therapy.

Could you explain more about the oedema? I am interested in knowing how that feels.
Much Love,

Hi. It doesn’t feel like anything, really. Just swelling of the lower legs.
Cheers!
