Today was my pre chemo visit and it wasnt as bad as I had thought it was going to be.
The staff were all lovely and the nurse who talked me through the procedure and side effects was brilliant. I mentioned that the oncologist had said that the chemo could start after christmas and she said she would have a look and see what she could do. I mentioned that the site of my operation was a bit sore and weepy and she managed to get the oncologist to have a look and he confirmed that there was a slight infection there and put me on antibiotics for a week and asked me to go back next monday for him to check if all was healing ok. This then crought up the subject of starting chemo and he explained that until the infection was gone they could not start the treatment so have now been given the date of 4th Jan to begin treatment so at the moment I am a very happy if slightly sore bunny and can look forward to a fab chrimbo and then hit the trenches fully charged in the new year.
Hope everyone out there is ok and enjoying the build up to xmas.
take care love Terri xxx
