Hi everyone
I have a stoma now as well as an illuit conduit. Had to be rushed in as I collapsed. Just spent 5weeks in new cross and 3 weeks at home ,where I am bed bound. I cant weight bare on my left leg and I have secondary cancer in the lymph nodes in the hip.
The pain , I can't cope I have had no treatment due to needing stoma so radiotherapy was put off and off ....my first session is 18th March, next Wednesday. I have a wheelchair to get me there and my partner will help me transfer
Please can anyone tell me if radiotherapy reduces the pain im in ? I that 30mls zo morphine twice a day and oromorph as and when at 10mls. But my leg spasms and its numb from the hip down ,n had a DVT in that leg which swole it to 3 times the size.
I can can not do anything. , I can hold on if radiotherapy will help me but I am at my end ,I sit in my recliner chair downstairs as I can't make the stairs and cry ,just sobbing with the pain ,my partner gets frustrated with me saying we need to go to A&E but I can't see what they will do, im on antibiotics, and painkillers and i will be stuck in hospital not being able to get out.
I keep clenching my spine and have to physically relax to get the pain to stop
Im exhausted and upset
