Yoohoo, seem like nice boys!!!!
Went to see my new haematologist the other day - Doc C. He gave me a quick once over to check for swollen lymph nodes, thankfully none were found. I asked him about the likely hood of a relapse which is always possible with any cancer but especially with the Hodge. For a bloke of my age and condition (ripped!!) I have roughly 85% chance of cure - that's about 1 in 7 chance of relapse. I must admit, relapse has been on my mind quite a bit since I was told I had the all clear, I keep getting the odd twinge in my neck around the biopsy site and often mistake the small scar tissue lump for for a swollen node with a corresponding leap of dread in my chest until I realise that its nowt to worry aboot. I'm now on the lymphoma follow-up program and my next appointment is in three months time.
I'll soon be paying the company doc a visit and will hopefully be back among the graft in a few weeks.
The tranny van is now sorted and stops like a new'un, so we'll be making the arduous journey down the road to Ikea in Edinburgh (nowt but quality in this house) tomorrow - we're only going for the hotdog's.
Yesterday, we watched the herd of bulls stampeding away from our house and across the horizon, not immediately realizing they were being chased by our Yorkshire terrier - hilarious!!!

Its great to hear you've got the all clear for Hodgkin's Disease. My friends son was also given the all clear about 6 months ago, such a relief.
