my husband recently discharged from hospital after suffering with sepsis which he has recovered ...but he didnt recieve any treatment for his myaloma which is worrying .. he missed his phone call appt for the prescription he needed because he was in hospital [he was transferred to another hospital for physio because of his walking ..which he can just about do].and i spoke to his onchologist and she said she wanted to try a different treatment but he needed to be there to sign the forms for permission ..what happens if hes to ill to attend ..what do we do???
he obviously needs a treatment and cant do with out ..so what happens ??
Hi PINKTSHIRT,
I am really sorry to read about your husband. I can understand just how worrying this time is. Is there any way you can explain to your husband’s oncologist just how poorly your husband is at the moment and whether there is anything they can do to help you? Could they arrange someone to visit for him to sign the papers (eg potentially the GP)? Could special transport be arranged to the hospital?
I am really hoping that your husband starts to improve soon and can get back onto the treatment and hopefully start to put the myeloma back into its place.
Wishing you and your husband all the very best
Greg
