Life is too hard right now.
Bless you! I’ve got covid too and feel sorry for myself too, sometimes it’s all really hard work!! Especially as your hair is going at the same time, I was looking forward to the Easter holidays with my 12 year old and have just had to cancel first lot of plans, big hugs xx
Oh no I’m sorry you’re feeling so rubbish , it’s just so much to deal with at times isn’t it
sending you a big hug , hope Covid and the cramps ease up quickly

Thanks ,
For support, much appreciated.
Just been sat in bed this morning, paracetamol & hot water bottle.
stayed in bed pretty much yesterday, it's effort to get up and get dressed.
I'm just rather confused as to why I'm even getting a period,.
Last call with oncologist which was last Monday she said your overies should be shut down now, but they can't be I'm having a standard period.
No I didn't get any extra support, just told to phone up acute If I get worse, they have me booked in for picc line Tue, chemo Wednesday, but they phoning me on Monday to see how I am.
All my blood work is normal , nothing wrong with me except covid on a swab test.
My nasal passages are really conjested, sinus hurt at the moment.
I do find it odd all my blood work is normal , I must be a strange species!
Ok thats totally different to my experience here in Bucks. I called the red card line, they were straight on it and I was contacted by the covid team. Here they don’t allow you to continue treatment with Covid until it’s gone, they don’t let you in the hospital if you know you’ve got it! X I’m glad you don’t feel too bad, I feel quite poorly x
Yeah, it’s very, very daunting, I know. I had a good experience with my picc, it went in quite ok and didn’t give me problems so I hope you’re the same. Thanks, I hope we both get better soon! At least you got it before chemo started I guess, trying to look for a silver lining!!! X
