Well I didn't put up anything yesterday, but I did make it into work. Not sure how productive I was. Spent a lot of time talking to people at work about how things went on Friday and the weekend. Good that they take an interest and are comfortable asking me. I also got a lot of response from ex-colleagues who I updated on my condition, many thanks to you all for your messages of support.
Apart from that I think I'm a bit low on energy. So I can't get concentrating on things well. It was a bit the same today, possibly better.
Otherwise I can feel a bit of a burning sensation in my armpit, not really painful - maybe that's the chemo burning up the tumor. Slightly aching joints - could be just tiredness and quite a dry, sticky mouth.

This is the story of how I progressed through diagnosis and treatment of Hodgkins Lymphoma. I hope it helps friends and family to see how I'm progressing. Mainly it's for me to get stuff out of my system. But please let me know what you think.

Good luck John - hope things get better. Love the bit about only feeling ill if you really are ill!! Psychosomatic, but the other, more positive way!!
Keep going - you might want to try part-time work for a while, you know!
Best wishes, Angela and Richard
Hi John,
glad to see that you made it back into work & are keeping a degree of normality in line with your positive outlook. We all have less productive days so don't worry about that and anyway you will be giving a very positive motivation affect to your colleagues! However, don't let work stress you too much so you can concentrate on the treatment & the family.
Continued good luck & see you at the next re-union.
Cheers, Stuart & Angeles.
