Back To Work

I went back to work today
I work from a home office although I am often out for at least part of the day, the nature of the work means that I would need to be available to answer the phone throughout the day
At least the "work load" is set at 50%

Pain

As part of my visit to see the surgeon on the 7th of March I had to have a X-ray to check the bone alignment
I had to extend my head up and down for the X-Rays
Within a few days I developed a fair bit of pain in the neck area which has been getting progressively worse
The only instant cure is to lye down and rest my head supported on a pillow
After a few weeks of this I contacted the hospital and they did another X-Ray.  This time I did a bit less movement as I guess it was me extending that caused the issue in the first place
The pain is more under control but is still constantly there

Follow up visit to the surgeon

Hey everyone
Visit to the surgeon today 7th
He is very pleased with the full resection of the tumour - so am I :)

Due to the various surgeries I have had it gets a bit harder for the specialist to read the MRI and they have highlighted a small area near my original Chordoma growth which they want to keep and eye on
Hopefully it's nothing

Next MRI booked for the end of March
I will be seeing the oncologist again in April
I will then find out what if anything he intends to do with me
