Yummy cake ! So glad you've had a lovely Easter with your girls & family..
Annoying about the car. Just an idea, Couldn't you do lateral flow tests instead ? My hospital normally gives me a pcr test to do in advance 2 days before but they didnt have any for May so they told me to do a lateral flow instead..
I suppose it doesn't make so much difference as I do a lateral flow day of treatment too.
Hope you manage to sort it
Hi Jebe I can do lateral flows but I don't know if our hospital will except that. I cant speak with chemo till tomorrow with it being bank holiday too.
Hi Babs73, I don't have a picc line so with the chemo going straight into my viens it's knackered them, docetaxol is suppose to be easier on the arm so I'm feeling hopefull for that xx
Thank you Seaside I'm going to phone my team up romorrow and find out what's happening xx
Morning Ladies,
Hope youre all doing ok.
We travel home today from the Cotswolds back to wales,had a lovely weekend,back to work tommorow.
Oncologist has said she wants me to stop working next tuesday,as first chemo is wednesday,so this will be a strange few days.
Hope you all enjoy the rest of the bank Holiday and sending you all a hug

Morning Dee
Glad you had a great weekend away.
Will be strange to stop work but you will get used to it and be glad of it.
I retired 6 years ago so thankfully don't need to work.
Enjoy your Bank Holiday. I am heading to see my 2 brothers who live at the seaside. Sets me up for my 3rd Chemo tomorrow.
Sending positive thoughts to all xxx
Are you disappointed at that Tizzy. Was this your 4th you were getting and about to start Docetaxol?
My Docetsxol starts on 10th May and I have a wee break in Oban planned 5th to 9th so if they want an Echo or ECG on heart I am hoping it's before that. Xx
