Had hospital appointment this morning, nothing to do with the cancer.

They are not sure if it is a hip replacement or knee, got to have cortisone injections into hip, to determine.
Then the next bit, will have to get in touch with your oncologist, to see how long you have left, if its not long, then not worth going ahead with operation.
I never ever wanted a prognosis, so if no operation, then i will not be buying a new dress, i was dum founded,
Who knows how long any one has, .
I am just lost for words,

If I didn't know you Ellie I would be saying you have not understood it right. That is apalling, probably the worst thing I have heard happen.
Of course your oncologist is not going to give a timescale, he doesn't know, no one knows.
I am sorry that you have had to go through this upsetting nonsense.
Only light in the tunnel is the injections, they may make things a bit easier. X
Omg Ellie to be treated that way is disgusting! Surly there are better ways of communicating this with you! I would be putting in a complaint, you are just as worthy as the next person. He wouldn’t of said to someone without cancer, I’m only going to do the op if you don’t get hit by a bus tomorrow!
I’m so angry that you have been treated this way!
Sending you a hug x
Hi Ellie,
What a bedside manner that is. The plonker should have said that he'd be in touch with oncology to discuss your fitness for anaesthetic and risks etc.
There are ways of doing things and that wasn't it. Take no notice and buy the dress.
