hello.
Unfortunately my boyfriend was taken to hospital Wednesday night. He was fine all day, went to bed and gradually started getting pain in the abdomen feeling like he kept needing the toilet. As the night went on the pains got worse and worse and we ended up in a&e. They did the usual thing and gave antibiotics on arrival as he’s Neutropaenic, meaning that complications from his treatment could be life threatening. Anyway X-ray showed a obstruction in the bowel. Oh no, not a tumour again, I thought, thankfully not, they said it could have been caused by various things, possibly scar tissue and adhesions from previous bowel surgery. Anyway had bowel decompressed and started exploding on the toilet quite quickly. Came home from hospital today and is on a soft diet for a few days and got to take metvocol for the time being as they think there is still a bit of a blockage higher up that still needs to find it’s way out. The good news is though that they had to also do a ct scan and it showed that the mets on the liver have shrunk. Yay. And only after 3 doses. Got 4th dose of chemo next week, then that’s the first lot completed ready to see what the oncologist has planned next.
Have a good weekend everyone x
