The dreaded finger update.
(Preview)
G'day all. It has been about 20 months since the end of my radiation treatment. All was well and I was going onto 12 monthly checks, but, I started bleeding from where the sun don't shine.

MRI after a Cochlear Implant (for anyone who may be interested)
(Preview)
As stated in another thread I had a cochlear implant in May, 2018. Today I had my first MRI since the implant. When you have an implant you can't just waltz into having an MRI in any old MRI machine.
