Like your style Francine hope the bleeping had a therapeutic effect !!!
Val and TC yes they torture you at every step in the process by making you wait!!Sometimes legitimately sometimes just seems cruel eg when medics are on holiday,lucky them eh!!!
Just decided if oncologist can go on holiday we can. I checked with BCN whether I would be called back after the biopsy on my onmentum she said no not until 17 Septemver. Yippee we have booked a cottage in Suffolk starting 4 Septemver our 39th wedding anniversary. Just need to close our minds of all this medical stuff and get some sea air. Our Labrador is suffering too his walks have got shorter since I started all these hospital appointments just trying to fit everything in… Just have to get the biopsy and overnight stay in hospital over with.
My God TC the waiting is bad enough, without them delaying things. Nikki had her op a week after diagnosis but maybe that was because she was having all her lymph nodes removed. Hopefully for you it’s not so serious x
Good for you Val. The waiting is the worst part. I’m having s holiday between my op and starting hormone and radiotherapy treatment although they are not best pleased I’m flying out of the country so soon after. It’s my dream holiday and Bleep BC is not taking that from me. Have a good day all xx
I had my MRI scan yesterday, seem to go ok, was about half an hour. Back to see the consultant on 1st September. Today is the first day I have woken up feeling a little better and no fog head, or splitting headache, or shakes, or feeling sick or sheer exhaustion. Hope it lasts a few hours just for some relief from this spinning room.
THank you all, this place is a tonic, (hugs)
A holiday is just the ticket to treat the mind and body…Just as important as the treatment in my book! X
Sorry about the rant earlier well its my 37 Wedding Aniversary on the 9th September, we were hoping to go away. May take a short break. I spoke to Mcmillan yesterday she said they have 30 days to treat you after MDT meeting apparently.
Morning all hope you are all ok today? Barry I was told to do excercises after day 3 after op! But it was ok they only took a few minutes. Also I would check with BCN but I had to mosturise my arm everyday. Also I agree my BCN has been on a permanent holiday since it was diagnosed. Welcome to the new ladies:) you have come to the right place. Baby pink glad to Hear you are feeling brighter hope Francine and Jill hope you are both ok. New ones for trial ginger ale and rice pudding! xxxxx
Because the physio told her, Nikki has it in her head to do the exercises. It’s upsetting her not being able to move her arm. At least her hand isn’t worrying her now, hurry up nurse x
Ginger ale and rice pudding, why not ?Grate some sprouts over the rice pud to add a bit of extra goodness …hope you are feeling better today Sarah.I am glowing after being radiated again but at least the machine didn’t sodding break down on me today ,5 down. 10 to go.It really is like Groundhog Day,didn’t I do this yesterday ???Even met the same people in the toilet !!!
Feeling hot hot hot Jill x
More like I have been microwaved Barry…,
You have done your first week tomorrow Jill.
I’m feeling brighter today hoping I will remain that way:) mmm grated sprouts on top sounds lush. I looked the picture of health this morning for about an hour my face went bright red! It was fine just very strange. Xxxxx
To counter act side effects of radioactivity buy large tub of Ben and Jerry’s,rest on boob to cool down, then eat …
Love that idea Jill. Will be buying tubs to get me through once I start!
I am experimenting with flavours to see which is best…
You will have to share your findings. Love a bit of research. Is it very painful? x
Cookie Dough working best so far!!!
Nice letter from employers again next stage of sickness procedure ,better get cracking on that cure for cancer so I won’t ever be off again with the same complaint again…shame I can’t attend my meeting I will be lying back being radiated at exactly the same time or should I cancel…
