Am just home from hospital where I have spent the last five nights after becoming unwell. Cannot believe that this time last weeek I was advising another member on what to do when she became shivery and had a temp and was unwell. Lo and behold 2 days later my hubby has to make a couple of calls 1 to the 24 hour helpline at the hosp, who after listening to him gave him NHS 24 number and a doctor turned up to examine me and told me it was off to hospital I was going.Went in our own car and was admitted. Tests were carried out, blood checked , samples from Hickman line to check this for infection, chest xray, swab from open wound on back taken ect and still 5 days later no clearer as to cause. The doc at hosp blaims the wound even though this came back negative.Now Ive got 10 days worth of anti biotics to take and my second chemo session has been delayed a week so far.Bummer. I have been as fit as a fiddle following chemo 1 apart from nausea fo a few days after treatment. Back on Tues to see oncologist and find out if chemo will be resumed.Am pig sick but hey Im home in my own bed tonight. Hope sammeio you are feelin better too.

Hi Jules - I was sorry to read that you had to go into hospital, but glad to hear that you are now home, and in your own bed tonight. You've had a hiccup sweetheart, but hopefully your next chemo, although delayed somewhat, will go ahead, and you're reaction to it will be just as positive as your first. I hope you keep well from now on. Keep fighting the good fight, and stay strong. With love, hugs and xxxxx's kate
