Biffer, sorry to hear that. As you say you have a fight on your hands, and it's that, that will get you through this. Stay strong and kick it into touch. Sounds like you're the person to do that anyway. There's a lot of help out there that makes this a fraction of what it could be. Thoughts are with you mate.

Biff, sorry to hear that, but like you say, you are a fighter.

One tip having had both parents have cancer, if you are going to go on chemo, consider finding a reflexologist to treat you a day or two after... may sound mad but really helped my Dad.

Also, if you need any info on drugs etc, let me know and I'll see what I can find out.

Take care and keep the chin up

Neil

Biff, bad news and a crappy day I am sure. I am however sure having a beer or two will not affect the outcome so have one (or three , or four, or five ) for all of us on here.

Pete

Best of luck Biffer.

Having the right attitude is half the battle when dealing with cancer and you sound like you have it by the bucket-load.

"Buff" - bloody iPad. Biff from what I've read/heard about you on here you've never shirked a battle so I'm sure you'll soon kick this one into touch too.

You know where we are if you want to take your mind off things, as you may have observed I'm always up for a good debate
