Today I encountered the first delay. Sessions were running about an hour late but most people just smiled and jolly along. It can't be helped, we all need to be there, it's not worth stressing out about. I got moved onto a different machine in the end.
Today they stuck sensors onto my eye kids so I had to keep my eyes shut so they could measure what my eyes were getting. Also had a review with a RT nurse and saw a picture of what's being zapped on me- it actually goes higher on my face than I thought- so that will be interesting if I start getting any reaction.
Phoned Denplan today and a payment for the time I spent in hospital has been approved and a chq is on the way. Think it's about £65 for each night I was in so that's nice. I also asked About further dental work and the gentleman seemed surprised that it wouldn't be covered but I said there were a number of people on here who had to pay. I guess I'll find out more about that later. I also asked them if the would pay for the Caphosol and he said possibly if it was prescribed by a dr. I said if a dr prescribes it then I can get it anyway. He then said if it was a private prescription that I had to pay for I would probably be able to claim it back. Apparently I have £12,000 pot to claim against for anything that has to be done as A result of the cancer. I'm going to try and see my GP tomorrow to discuss options. My tongue still feels fizzy, but nothing else noticeable yet.
Here's a link Josie posted in one of the groups which is a nice short little Video to show what happens during a session
