Michelle

I was told six weeks. In the end I was given the "all clear" at four weeks.

All the best

Sounds like its going well then if your appointments are so far apart. Great news Michelle.

Can't wait to see the pix.

Would have though you'd be able to get your hair done.

I meant to say next checkup is 4 weeks not 4 months

lol. dont know what i was on or thinking. must be the stress of helping my friend move house or should i say ive done 75% of it all.

am a bit worried about going to see my dad next week he is a heavy smoker. its my birthday friday so just off for couple days.

Any ideas
