Update from last night

Less than one minute read time.

Well the doctor finally came last night, dad was given a morphine injection as they thought it might be a muscle spasm they was told to give it a hour and if the pain hadnt subsided to call them back in, inevitably the injection never worked and the doctor had to come back out again, they tested his urine and thought he maybe had a infection so he was given antibiotics and diazepam to help him sleep.  He did finally get some sleep unfortunately me and mum did not get a sleep.  He seems ok today thankfully, told mum if the same thing happens just get the doctor out again.  I kept on forgetting the medication dad was changed onto from the morphine mum told me again last night its called hydromorphone, I looked at wikipedia and it turns out this is at least twice as strong as morphine which has totally unnerved me because I have never heard of anyone being on strongr that morphine, maybe thats just me been new to cancer and everything that goes with it.
