Still waiting to see oncologist seems it be another 3 weeks away .
Im in so much pain and probably won't get started treatment until September now.
Spent a week.in hospital trying to get pain relief but they were more concerned about making me empty my bowels ect even i thought once that happenned my pain would ease. Came home yesterday still in agony .
Tbh don't think can wait much longer pain is excruciating.
Not sure what to do
I’m so sorry to hear you were discharged from hospital in so much pain. My sister had a similar experience recently, although hers was following an endoscopy and colonoscopy back to back! Her hospital sent her home almost unable to walk, feeling sick and in extreme pain. She ended up at A & E later that day. I would definitely speak to a Macmillan nurse. Don’t suffer any longer.
