Treading water

Enjoying the London grey with Jack while I wait for fourth DC treatment in Duderstadt and a CT Scan which is booked for the 14th April at Barts in London. Nice one NHS it's perfect timing in regards to treatment, 3-4 weeks after the third one so we can gauge the effects, if any.
No reports from the blood test two weeks ago at Whitechapel and not sure if I am supposed to call or assume no news is good news. I guess though I should make that phone call – that's the thing when you leave the 'system' it really is up to you to follow up and organise your own treatments.

The swallowing is still an issue and that is a concern – I am glad Dr Nessulhut has recommended adding Anti-PD1 to the next DC treatment and have found more content about it here and a news article in the NY Times. It does seem that it is getting extremely good results in clinical trials and hopefully along with Biosceptre's cell therapy we can manage the tumour.

Otherwise feeling like a normal old geezer and managing to hold weight and even gain a little at around 64kg. Was considering joining a gym and bulking up but have settled for just getting fat on gellato.
