Had a good birthday yesterday with the "short" Admirals Park walk/roll to the Cafe for half a toasted teacake each followed by a circuit of the lake in wonderful sunny autumn weather. Then to Saffron Hall in the evening for a fine concert from Marin Alsop and the LPO, now the place's second resident orchestra after the Britten Sinfonia. However, the left hip's a bit stiff and sore this morning, which is a warning to still be very careful with my activity levels. No point overdoing things and setting them back.
The ankle oedema is getting slowly worse - having some real trouble getting socks and slippers on this morning 11/11 (especially left foot). Not seeing consultant till next week but will discuss it with the nurses in the Oncology Centre when in for the next Velcade shot on Thursday. Also want to get print-outs of recent blood tests out of them to keep my records up to date.
Otherwise, sleeping is best yet post-dex, and no sign of other side-effects. At least, none that a nightly shot of prune juice and a senna pill or two can't cope with.
