living with cancer

This is the one diary I should have kept 14 years ago and one I wish I did not feel the need to keep now. I was diagnosed with bone cancer in 1992 and survived. 2006 and I now have another tumor under investigation: the journey begins again..

Thursday 28 August 2008 – Visit to GP

I could not wait until September 22 to find out the results of my Colonoscopy and the pains in my stomach and back had become so bad that I really needed to see if I could be prescribed some medication to alleviate the symptoms.
The good news is that the GP does not think that I have anything life threatening or terminal going on in my stomach, the bad news is he is still none the wiser as to what is causing all the pains. He has deferred any decisions on that to the Specialist I will see next month.
I have been prescribed Hyoscine Butylbromide for the stomach pains [Relief of colicky abdominal pain (caused by painful spasms in the muscles of the stomach or bladder regions) including irritable bowel syndrome]
