Hi everyone hope all going well xx I had my 12th bcg treatment today so hopefully a break for 6 months ...I have tolerated the treatment quite well so far but today I seem to be feeling shaky and trembly..has anyone else had this it is new to me xx thank you 

  • Hi Hou, congrats on getting almost half way through the BCG protocol, though I have heard that these days the NHS doesn't necessarily expect patients to have 27 doses as previously I did. I cant say I did feel shaky or trembly but there were a couple of times I felt like I was going down with flu..... weary, hot and achy. Rest up, drink loads of water, watch box sets xxx Hope you feel better tomorrow. 

  • Thank you x I think maybe I was getting anxious earlier due to the pain when peeing .. this does feel like anxiety..I've been doing so well it's come on so unexpectedly xx thanks for your reassurance x

  • Hi . Hope you are starting to feel better. Nice long break to build up your strength again, and great timing too. Best wishes.

    Best wishes to All,   rily.

  • Thank you x looking forward to it x I think Iver been trying to force out my urine not letting it flow naturally x trying to get it over quickly..I stopped doing it tea times and it wasn't hurting half as much x 

  • Hi Tina,How are you feeling today ? love Jane x

  • You are so kind checking up on me Jane xx I'm much betting today thanks Blush I had a good sleep apart from the usual loo visits but I went back to sleep so I don't mind that xx Sleeping I don't know what that was yesterday xx I think sometimes the worry about your cancer can cause health anxieties..even though I try my best to keep upbeat and positive xx I practiced my breathing technique and found this helped xx how are you keeping did you manage to have something to help with your back I hope so xx how is your mother x are you able to visit at all now x take care and thanks for your concern x

  • Hi Tina,I’m glad you are feeling better today,a good sleep really helps.I hope to see mum soon.My sister is so busy at work it’s hard to plan anything as she gets called in to cover staff shortages.John did offer to take me over but his anxiety has gone through the roof since his friend caught covid.I’m sure we will sort something out.Mum is down to 6 stone 3 lb but is being well looked after.I’ve been put on Amytriptyline for my back so I must start that.I had some waiting in Boots but the hospital have supplied some and I’ve only just opened the pharmacy packet.I’m researching John’s mum’s family tree as I started it a few years ago but never had the time to continue.John hasn’t told her as I want it to be a nice suprise for Christmas.Take care Love Jane xx
