How are you doing now? I can totally relate to the feeling of being overwhelmed. For me, what really helps keep my sanity intact is long walks in nature. There’s something incredibly calming about being outside, breathing in fresh air, and disconnecting from all the stresses. It’s like hitting a reset button for my mind. Thanks to services like ukwritings.com/dissertation-services, I’ve been able to manage my academic workload much more efficiently, which frees up time for activities like these. It’s amazing how just stepping outside for a while can give you a fresh perspective and help clear your head. I feel so much more at peace after a walk in the park or along a quiet trail. Taking those moments to recharge has been a game-changer for my mental health.

Dan I insisted on kidney function test at the time I had to have contrast for diagnosis. In fact past 6 years since treatment I still have renal, liver, thyroid and full bloods tested every year. I keep my own records and am a strong advocate for my health - every time I see the doctor I prepare exactly what I want out of the consult. I read up on my results to discuss. For example this MRI coming up I want a focus on my facial nerve (Last MRI was on trigeminal). I also request the same radiologist when I book. I insist on yearly audiograms too.

Kidney and liver tumors…… more than a dozen MRI’s with contrast….. well isn’t that interesting…. learn something new about medical procedures every day.

So glad to hear that Dan! I asked permission to post as did not want to unsettle people but on other hand I feel its important. I had to advocate for self with my team post treatment too. I wish there was a more holistic appraoch-  I have found little support on how to deal with certain issues and what things might be helpful to reduce the risk of regrowth. This information is out there surely - given the accumulative knowledge of the biological pathways one would think.

Just wanted to update, it has disappeared and I am glad it is gone.
