Tamoxifen 34 *the power of Sauron*

[MaryAnnSingleton]

new thread !!!

And am Ignoring the smear tests asi need a repeat as last one inconclusive. I have bit of awkward cervix plus my bits were nuked during radio so it is very tender down there (think what it was like post stitches if had them) so it isn't the nicest thing.

We could have quite a gallery of fanjo pics what with all our various ishoos.

I haven't been back for my (much over due , naughty I know !) smear .
As I too am I possessor of a tilted uterus . And the last time I was in the nurse said "give me a bit of notice next time and I'll order in an extra long speculum" .........

Morning All
Feeling a bit shitty today .
Woke up at 2am with sharp stabby pains in my ribs under my mx scar .
I got up and took some pain killers , which actually worked .
But then I stayed awake convincing myself that the rib pain was a new massive Super Tumour growing .

I now have a thumping headache .

Sigh , who is on breakfast duty ?
You allowed to eat as normal today Gigs ???

Wading in to sit my huge arse on the paranoia box for you topsy

I can't join in the cervix talk but my left ear peeled yesterday.

We are off for the 1st camping night this year in the van today. We are heading to the purbecks so fingers crossed for some sunshine.

Throwing bargain Waitrose bakery croissants on the trolley and then running off to get ready for our trip.

Yeah so am eating like a steroid deranged maniac.

Will sit next to gigs for you. Ime of super tumours topsy they don't appear over night.

And do you not think that rib pain could be due to crocheting or something you have done in day. I imagine rib and lat muscles all mucked - I know my Pilates guy says that getting muscles back in rib/lat area is a nightmare. But gentle squeeze of reassurance .

Have a fab time notjenkins

Huge amounts of luck today, Gigs. At least it'll be another part of the rebuild done. Will be thinking of you lots, especially tomorrow. xx

My DH doesn't talk about feelings either. Must be something to do with post war men. Most annoying though when you just know they need to wail and gnash a bit. Am lucky though, as DH doesn't sound as tricky as yours Copt. Good he's going to Counselling, as at least he's admitting he has things to sort.

Topsy, ache's probably gut related after your weekend. I get a lot of pain in exact same place, so right under my mx. Had it before diagnosis and still do. Have had two bone scans and nothing showed. They told me it was most likely IBS, so phew and hooray for that.

Kurri, did you get to speak to your GP?? When's blood test? Hope soon.

Ouch and ouch again over smears. My last one wasn't too bad. Worst for me was when I was recalled three times as they hadn't taken enough of a sample.

Have a nice coffee, MAS. Brentford sounds like it should be in the '70's. Are you wearing flares?

Better do some work, so am waving to all. Pouring for all, and piling hot crumpets onto trolley.

x-posted with you NotJ. Did you really say camping?!

Yes camping but we have a camper can with a fridge and cooker and comfy big bed so it is posh camping perhaps I ought to point that out to dh who is packing for an Everest attempt.

I will put some pictures on FB later if they have 3G in deepest darkest Dorset.

Everest?!

I will be thinking of you tomorrow gigs and may not have mn access. I am sure the 2 weeks will pass quickly and you will be home all rebuilt before you know it.

Well ofcourse my rib pain has nothing to do with my weekend of debauchery , or the coughing fits I've been having at nights .
It's definitely a Super Tumour ...

You should take up smoking, Topsy. That'd help.

If my tumour is Katherine Jenkins (the thought of removing her has cheered me up), topsy debauchery tumour must look like this tumour.

Hahaha !!!!
Loving my Keith Tumour !

Hmm maybe smoking would help ?
I can picture me with a pipe ...

at Keith.

Watching funeral now when should be packing.

I should be working and put it on while more coffee brewing. Norman Tebbit's shrunk..!

sitting on the paranoia box to help keep Keith in his place

notj - am impressed by camping - have fun,post pictures !
Good luck with arranging blood test dear kk - maybe GP just wants to see how you're doing ?
I confess to watching bits of beginning of funeral procession - like gig I am intruiged by ceremony etc - I didn't go to Brentford smee - my friend came to me and we had coffee and croissant in the Italian cafe (she had chocolate and pistachio cake) and a good catch up. There is nothing nice to go to in my old home town,sadly..not like Kew or Twick

the Keef tumour is scary ! Is there a Myleene Klass one too ?

Ha ha ha! at Keith supertumour of drink and debauchery, presumably means you can abuse your body as much as you want and still keep rocking, also be inspiration to Jonny Depp and have nights of drinking and denbauchery with him

Though actually I too get pain in ribcage just below mastectomy scar and though I can throw bone and liver tumours in paranoia box it can go into spasm when I do sit ups so not a frequent problem which suggests it is muscular.

We do have an interesting range of down unders don't we? I am trying to be positive about mine in that haven't had that pain there since childbirth It's actually second incident that provoked feelings of violation as got overly zealously searched at airport on way out and when she reached my bra she eyed me suspiciously so I whispered "it's a prosthesis" to which she replied "a what" and I said "a prosthesis" even more suspicious look, so I shouted A PROSTHESIS and her boss had to call her over to explain I was so seething with anger I walked off into the airport without my shoes, and didn't realise until I got to the duty free. I have a blood test booked on Friday and I am quite worried these things may come in threes ........

However big Copt did point out that the mastectomy did open up the possibility of a new career as a drug mule.........

my bolter also a joker as you can currently see on my facebook

MAS Yes we have Vince and he is good and very accessible local MP. He walks around in a rather dashing fedora and seems a genuinely nice and sensible man, when Camden were threatening to send big Copt to prison for their cock up of her Council tax bill I emailed him and he replied that it was clearly unfair and he would address the principle in parliament but he could not deal with Camden because it wasn't his constituency However " I will pop the papers down to Glenda's office and ask her to help" I had visions of him and Glenda Jackson waltzing around the office clutching big Copts Council tax bill

NJ Love the sound of glamorous campervanning, v jealous

gigs sending lots of soothing vibes, and all the girls remaining lego .....

@ Vince 'n' Glenda !
how dreadful about the airport frisking -grrr.
I daren't ever look at my undercarriage as i know the episiotomy scar is huge (ds wasn't big but they had to accomodate cutlery and ventouse,poor love) it's not something I care to think about.

Think myleene was the original huge tumour on my arse . Only I could get cancer that was a giant boil on my arse.

Waiting to check in at hospital so back later.

Where are you all? Am banged up in posh chokey . It's quite nice and oddly feel calmer now am here.

posh chokey sounds good- will there be nice food ?
Hope you get a nice rest tonight - will think of you tomorrow.
