14 November 2016 - Cancer Centre, Old QEH

The second monthly cycle of chemotherapy went better for Deb than the first . - less sickness. This time did not see Dr Sanghera but his colleague 'Charlie' (didn't quite catch his surname, I assume he was a doctor; anyway he sat in Dr Sanghera chair and spoke knowledgeably about brain tumours). Deb's blood test results were good so she was able to start the next cycle of chemo that day. We discussed Deb's headaches (these are more frequent and prolonged but still not very severe). Deb also mentioned she had had five cold sores in the last few weeks and apparently this is a side effect of the chemo. A short appointment, we picked up the chemotherapy from the hospital pharmacy and headed home.

MRI scan to be arranged before next appointment in a months time. Now the results of that will be interesting.
