Yes I know it takes time!!! I cannot take ibuprofen due to poor kidney function, so I was having paracetamol and codeine. Pain wasn't really improving and began feeling this is just too much. I'm sensitive to caffeine so suddenly thought is there caffeine in anything thay are giving me. They say not but the it could be the codeine.
So since last night just taking paracetamol. They say there's nothing else they can give me. Just another one to add to the list of medication I can't take.
Also bit freaked out as consultant mentioned brachiotherapy.
Just seen consultant and he says I can go home today as long as the pain is controlled. Difficult with the thought of Hannah turning up whenever she wants.
