@Shaz51  docs are happy with progress thus far, however the scan will show if treatment is working and if things are looking any better in relation to an area where he had an infection.

Husband has finished 3rd cycle of chemotherapy with only 1 more to go in a few weeks time. Radiotherapy of 25 sessions finished a couple of weeks ago.

I was concerned about his mental health and emailed oncologist prior to latestclatest asking if an alternative to the steroid could be given with cycle 3. She was adamant his mood was normal considering what he is going through. I told her he seemed manic to me - becoming aggressive and argumentative. Husband was shocked having no memory of his behaviour. It did no good, oncologist gave steroid with chemo 😞

Thankfully he has been ok! No mania but extremely tired and trouble eating anything. On protein drinks again to get through.
