6th August - 8th August

Less than one minute read time.

My fever spiked Saturday morning. As usual I took a shower, paracetamol and fell asleep woke up with 38.1 temp had to call the ambulance. They checked and got 37.9 twice.

I spent from Saturday 4pm till Sunday 6pm in the hospital and then as usual discharged myself. The doctors only see you once in a day, food is terrible nothing fresh. Nothing is clean, the bins were stinking and no one emptied them???

Finally home, called to change my appointment with oncologist as she should see me day before chemo. I was told there is no appointment available. Great, I also need a scan??? as there is suppose to be one afer thrid chemo. No one seems effing bothered.

I am so %**^*^ tired of running after nurses and doctors. I am the one going through chemo, I am sick sick sick give me a break and sort these things out. I have to keep on chasing this shit again and again.

So tired, mouth hurts, bones are crushing, nails are killing me. gonna sleep now :(

    HUGS - it is such a shame that sometimes one is seen as a file rather than a human being whose life has been turned upside down.  We are at the start of our journey so i hope this is just a one off for you.  I'm going to read your blog posts but wishing you lots of hugs and i hope that you feel better when you wake up xx

    Oh Blue, you are having a right shit time and hospital is not helping. Please let your family take care of everything and you consentrate on yourself. Dont know about scan after 3rd chemo, i certainly didnt get one but are you having chemo before surgery so maybe that is why. Hope you have a good sleep.

    Take care Love Kaz x

    I'm not suffering half as badly as you, but if it makes you feel any better I've felt a lot worse this time round.  At least you have finished with the dreaded Tax now, I reckon you are going to breeze through FEC after all the problems you've had.

    blue, if I had a magic wand I would wave it in your direction and sort everything out for you - sadly, when we most need tender loving care, all we get is the NHS!  Don't let the buggers get you down  whatever it takes you will survive.  Don't let things carry on like this, get a name and number of the oncologist meant to be taking care of you and get on their case, calmly but forcefully.  I sincerely hope the rest of your treatment progresses a lot better than this.  Ann x
