I first realised something was wrong when out for a meal with relatives. I had difficulty swallowing food at the start of the meal and a succession of hiccups. Everyone thought it was a hiatus hernia but it turned out to be more than that. This blog is a summary of my journey through the system.

Demystifying
On the 28th.November had a session at the McMillan Centre entitled 'Demystifying Chemotherapy'. This was given by a couple of oncology nurses and was an overview of what to expect during the chemotherapy treatment. This was very general, advise on what not to eat, contamination precautions etc. It did not cover my type of cancer or the torrid side effects as I found out later. On the 5th.December I had my last session with the oncologist who conducted a fitness test on me. Seeing as I was lopping trees the day before that was not a problem. I was passed 'fit' for chemo.
