So it's been a little while now, and I've seen some real improvements in my digestive tract. Day-by-day it's been getting better, from really struggling during my holidays last week (mostly spent playing my PS4, forcing down porridge, and then working out before forcing down some soup) to it being almost fine today.
Towards the tail end of last week, my tongue, I realised, had gotten quite swollen up which made eating quite interesting! It never struck me that when you eat you move your mouth in a set way, which meant that this one area was consistently clipped by my teeth :( - very painful by the end. But, with a steady flow of painkillers, rest and time, everything's receded.
On Saturday, I went out for a meal with my parents and, on Sunday, I had food round my friends and found that eating became gradually easier. Today, I felt like I was beginning to some of the drugs for no real reason and could actually ENJOY FOOD AGAIN, which was lovely.
And, more than anything now, my HAIR IS GROWING BACK. I now look like I've shaved my head by choice rather than to try to pass as a normal person. Oh dear, oh dear. But, at least, a sign of improvement like I'm not all cancery and chemotherapy-like anymore :)
Here's a pic! Ignore the sadface - it was the only one that was vaguely acceptable for the net lol... Write soon :)
