Afternoon, Dougie.

Afternoon Dougie.

I’ll be off on my travels soon and won’t have internet for a couple of weeks but I’ll be thinking about you.  We fly to the Dominican Republic in the morning but we’re driving up to Manchester shortly and staying in an airport hotel tonight.

You won’t be alone on here though because there are others who will post regularly and will want to hear from you.  I expect there to be several more pages when I get back and hopefully some better news for you to post. 

Good luck with your next week’s visit to the consultant.  Keep that chin up.   X

We'll look after him while your away.

Won't we, Dougie?...You better hang on in there Kiddo.

Enjoy the hols, Caz..

As you can see I have had a bit of a break from posting because there is nothing really to report. I will monitor the thread, and try to reply, but may not post until something changes, or have a hospital visit.

Thankyou all for your support and kind posts, they have been, and still are, of great help

Good morning Dougie. No change is good. Keep yourself active and enjoy your surroundings. Can get monotonousness posting daily, We are with you.... 

Hi Dougie, I guess no news is good news in the circumstances. I hope your appetite has improved and you've been able to eat better.

Have a good day.

The weather looks like getting almost summer-like again later this week so hopefully you might be able to get out and enjoy it.

Hope all is well Dougie. I guess nothing to report is a good thing 

Will keep checking in 

Thanks for the posts guy's, it's great that you are still out there.

Very little has changed, although my appetite is a little better, but still not up to scratch.

I will try to post tomorrow.

Hi Dougie. Good thing appetite is better. Need to feed up with cooler weather coming soon. Don't want to catch any colds or flu....

Good to see you posting. Still not sure about this being awake in the middle of the night.   

When I'm feeling ill and have lost my appetite sometimes it's like trying to eat cardboard.  I guess it might be similar for you.  Just try to find something that appeals.  

Have you dropped the idea of a cat or are you still thinking about it?  

Hope your day has been OK,

keep posting Dougie!

Over the last couple of days there has been a down turn in my general well being I am afraid.

 I have had a lot of pain in my back and lower chest, coupled with a return of vomiting. I'll see what the consultant makes of this on Monday, which is my next appointment.

Not nice news Dougie. Hope the cause is dealt with on Monday. Maybe spine related. have a good rest over the weekend. Keep the mind occupied with other thoughts. We are here for you. 

There`s nothing i can really add to Art`s or Ben`s posts, just hope they can do something for you on Monday.

Thinking of you Dougie.

Really sorry and disappointed to read your news Dougie.  

If I were you I wouldn't be living with this over the weekend. If you're not right call your GP or the hospital: you shouldn't be dealing with this alone.

Hope you get through the weekend OK.
