I got my biopsy results back today and have been meaning to blog about it but I’ve been out all day and evening so I’ll just mention the results and post more on my thoughts about it later. I have several tumours they are all small and all contained in right chest area. I start chemo on Wednesday. I’m going to stay in hospital for a couple of days because I am also trying to wean Emma off from breastfeeding. I almost had her weaned last week but she came down with a virus over the weekend and wasn’t eating or drinking and all she wanted was breast milk. Now she seems to get quite traumatised when I refuse her my breast so I thought it might be best to stay in hospital longer in the hope that she’ll deal with that better. I don’t know if that will work but we’ll see.
I guess I was expecting the test results to positively show as it did that my meso had returned. I’m relieved in a sense that now I can get on with the fight to kill the bastard.

I know what you mean about some relief in finding out even if it is not the result you want. It now means you can get down to fighting it which is so much easier than waiting around and worrying. I hope your plan to wean Emma works out. I don't know much about how the chemo affects breast milk. I guess if it crossed over to it, then you would have to wean her anyway.
Do you know what drugs you are having and how often? Good luck for tomorrow - will be thinking of you.xxx

Thanks Julie. I'm having Alimta and Cisplatin like last time - and I think it will be every 3 weeks. We'll give it 3 months to see if it's working and if not we'll weigh up our options. Thinking of you too and hope your results are going to be good. xxx
