Cancer

Mantle Cell Lymphoma treatment.... spoke with oncologist yesterday, we talked about more chemo, then 3months after that, I may have a stem cell transplant (some people call them bone marrow transplant). The transplant is the easy part, stem cells are feed back intravenously, but before that a very high dose of chemo is taken to kill of the lymphoma and good cells, the scary part is your body is open for infection for two weeks :-(

Rockwiz

We went to the taping of Rockwiz last Tuesday night, at the Espy. It was a great night, the special guests were awesome…..Tim Finn, Ash from EVEN, & Venessa Amarossi (what a horn bag).

I managed to get the front row middle table!!!!

Before they started taping, Brian Nankervus got me up on stage for a laugh, the photos show that. I wasn’t drinking much (whale sperm) that night, so when I went up on stage my legs where really wobbly, and thought I was going to faint, lucky I didn’t. But felt pretty off for the first half of the 4hr taping.

Frank went up to represent our table of 8 in the rehearsal, and did really well to make the live taping. See Frank sing: click here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKNHPWNRoT8

NMH

I had a tilt table test last week, to see why I have been feeling like I'm going to faint if I stand in the same place for along time. The results show I'm suffering from NMH or Neurally Mediated Hypotension. Which means, my blood pressure drops to 70/x, instead of my normal 120/x, no wonder I want to lay down!

How to fix, well eat a high salt diet to stabilise my blood pressure! Hope it works.

NHL

I'm in remission the last year for Non-Hodgekins Lymphoma, I had my last chemo May 2007, that's great, but now when standing I feel as if i'm going to fall over or my legs are going to give out :-(
