Quite a lot of people are interested in my "Diary", but when my treatment took an abrupt halt with NO explanation - - - I had no explanation for anything
Well anyway - - 1 week later, to the day, I got an e-mail from my Specialist Nurse Mentor with a full explanation of what would happen now. She had been away on a course, bless her, and her e-mail covered the situation so fully, that I had no trouble accepting it.
The same day - the Doc that had just turned his back and walked out on me the week before - - phoned me personally and apologised for the way I had been treated, and thanked me for the Feedback. He then explained all the stuff he should have explained the week before. I can't help feeling that "better late than never" is not very appropriate under the circumstances - - - lol. WEll anyway, it was verified that the Chemo WAS stopped specifically because of my dying Finger and Toenails
So now I have completed my whole Diary about my Chemo treatment, but haven't actually closed it, because in 3 months time my PSA might bring up another situation. Now I'm planning on Posting the whole story in a Blog, with apologies to anybody who finds it boring, but it might help somebody.
Cheers Dan
