Hi MayC sorry to hear about your experiences at the hospital, I also sometimes feel as though I’m just a number and a burden especially if they’re running late as if it’s my fault. Fortunately I’m starting to be more forward in my approach with the nursing staff and Dr’s I don’t feel comfortable being like it but I really don’t care anymore. I’m finally having my PICC fitted on 13th after lots of calls and ‘stand offs’ with staff. I’ll be using your tights idea for covering the PICC, I’ve got plenty since not going into work for months now. Now you’ve mentioned about flushing I’ll have to see what they have planned for after it’s fitted, if it has to be done weekly I’ll probably just drive to our cancer centre it’s only 10 mins away so that’s ok for me. Stay positive although it’s really hard at times, considering there’s a pandemic and we’re all battling this illness I think we’re all super warriors. We’re doing covid, cancer and chemo the 3 C’s that’d overwhelm most people!! stay strong a few more miles to go 👍 💕 💕 💕
