I woke up tired today, dont know if its just because im tired or something more sinnestor, that the problem with this stupid illnes, it makes your mind play games.
I couldent sleep the night I was told my lump was cancer, I layed bed and all my joints were aching and I was busy convincing myself I had bone cancer, in reilaty it was more to do with the fact that we had walked the dogs for 2 hours while we were trying to get our heads round things.
Busy day at work, I cant seem to get it through my bosses head that I will be signed off sick for 2 weeks after the op and then back for a couple of weeks before treatment starts. The people in my office like to come to work when they have colds so I will be avoiding going in if I can.
Went to the doctors to book an appointment with the practice nurse, came across one of those very annoying receptionists. I explained the situation to her and told her I needed an appointment on Tuesday 10th she tapped away at her computer and said was 12th any good, I explained again this time being more forceful and she managed to find one. I then asked her for the form for free prescriptions again I had to ask twice before she got it for me, I filled it in and handed it back to her she looked blank, I explained that the doctor needed to sign it now she took it off of me without a word. I really wish she was in my world at the moment with all the problems attatched and then maybe she might make the effort to be a bit nicer to people
