Listening to gonorrhoea episode now and you didn't sound particularly horrified when it was said certain body parts might explode! You sounded gleeful 😂

It took me by surprise but I should have known better shouldn't I! 😂

Yay Jackie is on bluesky!

Hi, I'm honoured!!

Congratulations 🎊

Me too!

This looks great for one of my niece's, she loves medical things and want to be a paramedic

I'd pay to see you and @k8lister.bsky.social get pissed and chat about history 😂

I agree, I was only 39 when I discovered the lump in my breast and I didn't hesitate going to my GP thankfully, everything went quickly from there, saw breast clinic 19/7 had scans and biopsy that day and surgery 7/8. Currently half way through 15 cycles of chemo then got radiotherapy to come too

Thank you, I'm having to have chemo and radiotherapy after my initial lumpectomy so it is tough but I've got our wedding next September to focus on being well again for

.. which can often be the most aggressive and difficult to treat and prevent recurrence. The fatigue is starting to become worse this week and the hair loss has become noticeable too so I'm going to bite the bullet and shave it off this week

I had my 5th of 15 sessions of chemo today, the oncologists tell me chemo has been coming on in leaps and bounds over the last few years particularly and Breast Cancer Now have just released info about a new potential treatment for triple negative breast cancer ..

Exactly!

I've started losing my hair from chemotherapy but the spiky chin hairs are holding on tight!!

Yeah she's so relatable with how she discusses things so a lot of people who wouldn't get into a more 'boring history' style would be interested in her stuff, as long as they don't mind her saying what she actually thinks about historical people 😂😂 she doesn't mince her words!

I have a history degree but haven't worked in the field but have had a massive interest in history from being a teenager! My favourite podcasts are history related, especially Betwixt the Sheets
