Hey,
didnt speak to you for ages! how are you? how is the band? I just had my first fill today. was supposed to be 2 weeks ago, but when he tried to insert the needle the tissue was not healed enough to go through without damaging. so finally had it this morning. I'm good, lost 9 kilos and hopefully that will pick up with the fill........
what you up to?
take care

Hello,
I keep missing you in the chat room.
How are things? Any further news?
Bad news from my side too, my mums tests continually were coming back negative for cancer.....the last one was to take extra tissue from where the lump had been and test just to make sure the lump hadnt been shooting out tiny cancerous cells. The results came back yesterday and although it is very early stages the re-constructed breast has cancer in it again. She has to have another mastectomy :-( the past 6 years have been spent reconstructing it perfectly and now it has to go again. I'm more upset than my mum.....she is very positive about the whole thing. Luckily they can confirm in is not inavsive and has not moved outside of the breast.
Hope you are ok, and sorry to go on......
Take care and chat soon

Hiya Alison
Glad you are feeling better. I think being banded is a bit like childbirth, painful but soon forgotten!
I saw the surgeon Wednesday who told me she was going on holiday so would try and pass me ontl another surgeon to take the lump out, was well pissed off............ she could not tell me who or when it might happen.
I contacted my SIL who is a Dr and she arranged a private CT scan fr me at the Nuffield Hospital in Newcastle. I had that scan on Saturday morning. Today thye hospital rang to say they will do my pre-op assessment tomorrow with a view to haveing the biopsy on friday. Hope it all goes to plan. Swine flu is slowing things up here so hope the surgeon and his team stay flu free.
I cannot get onto chat either, grrrh. really frustrating isn't it.
Take care and do not over do things.
Hopefully we will get back into chat soon.
Thanks for your kind thoughts

Hello!
I'm doing much better now, had quite a lot of discomfort at first, esp from the port, but it has got much easier. Started back to work today......and just been for a hair cut so feel better still!!!
How are you? How did everything go? I was thinking about you on wednesday. I was online the other day and sent you a msg, but it said you were away - so not sure if you got it.
Have been trying to log on to the chat page, but the system has been very slow and not letting me enter. Will keep trying.
Really hope you are well.
Take Care
Alison
