Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

I haven't looked into ongoing ect @Bow It is something that I will discuss with my pdoc when I see him next. I see him Monday week. Hopefully by then he will have the follow up from the pdoc I saw in there.

Very much looking forward to seeing my psych and debriefing.

No doubt you do have a battle within yourself with your bloods hon. It seems like I difficult decision, which ever way you decide to go. All you can do is make the decision that you feel is right for yourself.

Perhaps if you don't need to be weighed that you can just say no again. Especially if it doesn't change how they will treat you in the appointment. I understand how hard it is to let people see that number and let ourselves see that number too. Yes it is just a number, but it represents so much more than that.

Wow you do have a busy week ahead of you hon with lots of appointments and groups. I hope they all go well for you.

Re: My Mosaic

I had my gynae oncologist check up this morning. I always find it such a somber experience these check ups. Sitting in a waiting room amongst patients who are obviously fighting cancer. But that was never really me. I had a couple of minor operations, no chemo or radiotherapy. Unless I told you I had low grade ovarian cancer, you wouldn’t actually know i had cancer. I guess I was one of the lucky ones.
Back when I was first diagnosed I was told that eventually I would need a total hysterectomy to prevent any more recurrence, I had already had one. In my last review we started talking about this and preparing for it. It was a huge decision. I always wanted more children, but that wasn’t my path. I’ve been grieving that for years.
But that is no longer the recommended course of action. They would do it if I really wanted it but it would mean hormone replacement therapy for 10+years. Instead I can just have a yearly ultrasound with my gp and they will see me if any issues arise.
So #cured. #discharged.

oh and I had my bloods done… my SW was available 😩 so expecting a call from my gp anytime.

Re: My Mosaic

Hi @Bow

Glad your check up went well and you can get away with a yearly ultrasound.

Well done on getting our bloods done hon. I know how hard that was for you. It's good that your SW was available to go with you and offer that support.

You've had such a busy day hon. Is there any self care you can do for yourself this afternoon?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Does being on the treadmill count as self care @Snowie ??? 😂😂😂

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

If it helps then certainly @Bow

Anything can be self care if we want it to be.

Re: My Mosaic

It helps to tick that box for today @Snowie i won’t do as long though cause I’ve already walked a fair bit today.

my gp just called too 😩

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

If you can tick the box plus do self care hon, then that certainly is a win @Bow

How did it go with your gp? (only if you feel comfortable sharing)

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

My bloods are worse @Snowie im suppose to go down and get more potassium meds from her.

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Sorry to hear that @Bow I guess it was probably something you were expecting.

Are you going to go get the meds from her?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

It was no real surprise I guess @Snowie

No.
