Oh Dreamy, I am so sorry to read that.
You poor thing, it must be scary for you.
I am scared. I went to bed last night very tired but with no thought that Iād need my hospital bags
Oh no, so sorry to hear youāre back in hospital Ffosse. I do hope they get you better and home again quickly.
Try to get rid of the fear if you can. You are in good hands, so let them and time heal you. Consider it just an annoying blip which you will overcome.
Oh Dreamy, you are having a bad time my lovely.
Try not to be scared. You are, and always will be in my thoughts and prayers.
We are all here for you.
Back to Ward 8 soon and a single room. The Consultant said that they were always going to discharge me of Monday so it didnāt matter that I got away a little early.
I have some type of virus plus an infection which is making me feel lousy. At least this afternoon they did every test possible hoping to find the infection for which they should have some drugs.
One little step at a time, Ffosse, and each is a little progress. Hope the battery of tests produces some useful results.
You poor thing.
Try and get some rest Dreamy.
Thanks, everyone.
Dreamy I am worried about you. X
Theyāre still saying that the chemo didnāt necessarily cause the infection. What? Twice in a row and a few hours between the end of chemo and the start of the infection?
Iām feeling rough as anything but my vitals have improved. Iām finally off the drip and the catheter. Iāve got no problems eating or sleeping. I just dread going home, perhaps in a few days only for the exact thing to happen again.
Iāve got an MRI at noon - nothing to so with my current infection,but to see how things stand cancer -wise. I really donāt want to go but as an in patient they will give me plenty of diazepam and liquid morphine. The original appt was for today at 6:20 pm so Iāll save around Ā£25 in Taxi fares.
Iām not happy though, having to get life saving treatment hours after Iāve had chemotherapy twice in 2 weeks.
Oh Dreamy thank you for the update.
It must be a nightmare for you.
Stay positive, I am rooting for you.
On top of feeling dreadful, you have this heat!
I will check on you later. X
Nurse Sweetie:lol:
Good to hear from you Ffosse. And glad things are improving. Try not to anticipate too much. One little step at a timeā¦
I donāt feel any better though. Having a shower this morning really took it out of meā¦I was exhausted afterwards?
Be a patient patientā¦give it a little more time. I know itās hugely frustrating, but the chemo effect will still be there so thatās part of the fatigue too.
Where are you Dreamy?
You know I worry. x
Iām just extremely tired and fed up with the whole thing. They donāt even know what type of infections I have so how is any treatment going to be a success? I really am at my lowest point presently.
On top of all that, the MRI showed a mass which they donāt know what it is either. They want to do a PET SCAN in about a month if Iām still alive.
I genuinely donāt believe my team understand what I am going through, despite my going into enough detail. Iām not posting on this forum for a few months, either
Ffosse, I fully understand you are going through a lot at the moment, but they will get to the bottom of it with the scans. Is a PET scan the same as a CT scan? I wonder why they canāt do it earlier. Iām at a low ebb too at the moment but we have to try to stay positive.
Oh, my lovely Dreamy.
Hang on in there. x
