I didn't find my way here until I was finished with trreatment and coping with the recovery period, Forager! You've got me beat!

You're gonna beat this cancer too.

That’s good news  , it’s only natural that you’re feeling apprehensive we all understand that feeling here as I’m sure most if not all of us felt the same way, I know I certainly did! I think a lot of it for me was fear of the unknown, once I got the first couple of days out of the way it all became very routine very quickly & I began to relax a bit, my radiotherapy appointments were usually around about the same time each day which made things much easier. These next couple of weeks will fly by, just try & keep yourself busy.

Thank you, im definitely up for the battle 

Hi nicola, ive had a letter come yesterday for my pre picc appt with the nurse on weds i think it is, although they have got weds as the 6th on the letter so i am going to give them a call in the morning just to double check, i missed my 1st scan because they sent it to an address from 2017! I have had to keep chasing a lot up along this journey, they haven't made it easy for me at all, but, i keep saying it, we keep moving forward 

I've also had all sorts of appointment issues that I've had to chase up myself. Hopefully it's all in place now for next Monday. Ever onward.

Like it’s not bad enough receiving a cancer diagnosis but having to chase things up really is the last thing you need! Silly mistakes such as incorrect addresses & sending out wrong dates just shouldn’t be happening it really is incompetence at its absolute finest!! I hope it’s a little more straightforward for you from here on in.

Not just me then. I agree everything else has been amazing. This lets the whole thing down.
