Recovery Week 18

The new ulcers healed, more or less, eventually.  My mouth is now not too bad again, and I'm eating mostly normally.  I still can't open my mouth wide enough to eat a burger (other than a very thin one), in fact it seems like I might never be able to as my mouth doesn't seem to be able to open any wider, despite doing the exercises I was given.

Had a good weekend away, though a day out wears me out by mid afternoon which I had not expected.  Tomorrow is check-up day when they will confirm the results of my first post-treatment scan (which at least can't be very bad, otherwise they would have called be in sooner).  I was also promised my PEG out tomorrow, which I plan on holding them to - I haven't used it for over 4 weeks, so it is just an annoyance.

I am off work this week, hopefully celebrating the PEG tube removal and a clear scan.  Slightly nervous, but cautiously optimistic all the same.
