I dont believe it !!

Nope - I havnt turned into Victor Meldrew - Ive found another lump.

Under my right arm pit, just along from the scar where I had 5 removed from my boob.  I am utterly, utterly pissed off to be honest.  Thats 3 lumps I need removing now - one on my head, one next to my nose and now one in my armpit.  There wont be much left of me soon !

It seems so strange that IL2 is working so well on my visceral tumours but is uneffective against these skin lesions.  Prof H did warn me this was the case.  But its still depressing when they keep popping up so frequently.

Generally Im feeling much better, apart from the itching ofcourse !  Im seeing Dr P on Thursday so hopefully he will arrange for these lumps to be removed, before my next cycle of IL2.  Psychologically I think its important.  And the smaller tumour volume I have the better for my general health.

The family are now taking bets on where the next lump will appear !!

Oh well, at least you can still see some of the funny side of it. Hope the lumps are removed before your next course of IL2.

Hello Jane. I came by, by way of Morton to say congratulations on your Nice Matters Award, that Is on Mortons journal for you and I can now see why he chose you. After reading the above entry and many of the others' you have written, I am rather lost for words at your strength and amazing ability to inject so much humour into such a heartbreaking and flaming unfair situation. It's no wonder you felt that way today, the sooner these lumps go, the better. I will say a wee prayer for you. You are In my thoughts.  Love Pam xx
