Well it has been nearly 2 years since I last posted but that is because life has been full, good and busy
I had my last Haematology appointment in November 2014 and I was discharged!
Lymphoma usually reoccurs within the first two years, so with no further problems I was finally pronounced  "in remission" or "completely healed" as I prefer to beleive.

This year I celebrated my 50th birthday in October, being thrilled to reach 50 when the story could have been different.
My wonderful husband took me on a secret holiday for 3 weeks; Flew to Vancouver then took an amazing Alaskan Cruise for a week. We then travelled across Canada on the train with two nights on board, through the Rockie Mountains to Melville. He had arranged without me knowing anything for my family to meet us there. I haven't seen my cousins for 40 years when they emigrated and my closest cousin was diagnosed with Myeloma in the summer. I had wanted to see him for so long but had never been able to get out there for various reasons. We had a wonderful reunion and I saw all my family there.
When we came home I had a party the following week with family and friends to celebrate in style!
Two days after that we moved house into the countryside! So life has been very full!

I have ongoing leg pains which we cant get to the bottom of. I think it may be Chronic Tendonitis and it limits my walking a lot. Today I am having an MRI scan on my knee to see if that is contributing as my knee has swollen recently. There are no concerns about this being secondary cancer of any type but it does limit my exercise a lot.
My new GP has been very proactive is investigating so I feel well supported by my GP again.

As the girls are no longer at home now, we are enjoying our time as a couple and planning to visit California in the summer. There will be some Disney with my Step-Children but my daughter and me are looking forward to exploring LA, visiting Hollywood and some famous beaches!
I now have travel insurance to travel anywhere in the world, and did get it last year at a premium of only £100 excess with HSBC.

I would love to hear from anybody else who has been affected by Lymphoma and will aim to update this blog more frequently.

Happy New Year to all my followers!
