That's really frustrating Anne! But go chill on the sofa you might fall back to sleep! Xx
My night didn't get any better, between being too hot and having pain in my fingers, elbow and shoulder! It was a tough night! But it's...
It might not be a genuine smile......but at least I am trying! Xxxx
So cute!
LondonLass are you taking high doses of vitamin B12? It helps the neurological system repair and you cannot overdose. Could help.
Thanks Helen, no I'm not but it's something I will look in to! I only recently had a blood test, but not sure if they check the B12 levels.
I will definitely discuss this with my GP or Oncologist. Â Thanks xxxx
Lol, can I have some of those pills if you find some???
Also needs something like 'enhances natural sleep without causing fatigue at any other time' and 'allows body to maintain normal temperature control at all times'

Well Gay if we find a tablet that can do that we will be worth a fortune and loved by ALOT of people!!
How did you get on today? Xxx
Had a meltdown on the car journey there! Once I got there the staff were lovely. They let me see how far in I would go beforehand and to climb up on the bed to see what it was like. I felt ok because I was face down, I felt like I could crawl out on my knees if I had to. I just have to wait for the results. I hate it when you have a scan and come out and the staff are completely blank. The head of the mdt was there and she walked out quickly.
Must try to go to sleep. I am in work again tomorrow. Night night!

Hi, glad the MRI scan went ok, I have meltdowns as well, I think they help you cope. I had my first check up since surgery yesterday. The one were they remove the drain. So I had a few meltdowns before I went to the hospital. It all went ok, everything is healing well and my new smaller boob looks great. I had a mastectomy on the left and a reduction on the right
Well Done Gay, these scan people really are amazing. They have clearly learnt that if they want to get the scan done as quickly as possible then they need the patient to cooperate and feel safe and at ease!
I'm pleased you did it and have fingers crossed for good clear results! Xxxx
Hi tiger, well done on getting through your appointment. I recall practically skipping into mine to have the drain removed.....after a few days I had had enough, Bless it's heart it did a good job and I was grateful for that, but I hated every second with it! Glad you are happy with your results! Hopefully things will continue to heal well and maybe you will sleep better without the drain for company xxxx
