Went for a blood test on Monday, and as it was the second blood test in a two week period, I was convinced that all would be well and I would go for my chemotherapy on Wednesday. This afternoon received a phone call from a nurse who works on the ward where the chemo is given. She told me that my chemotherapy session had been cancelled because the white blood cell count was still too low. This happened last week also, so that is now two weeks running that my treatment has been postponed. Has this happened to others? If so, would you share your experience with me please? I'm not the little "scaredy cat" I was when I first joined this lovely site, but I still find the "unknown" - when spanners are thrown in the works a bit daunting. Why is it that when people phone to give you some news which is not altogether good, they don't have the relevant information which would enable them to answer your questions? Just an observation that - seems a bit strange. I've been told to "report for blood giving duties" next Monday, after which, I have an appointment to see the oncologist. As I said, if anyone has had experiences like this, please share. I hope you are all warm and safe at the moment. Love kate xxxxxxxxxx
