Hello, hope you’re all well.
My mums results, unfortunately did confirm cancer. She had a total hysterectomy and now the cancer has come back: recurrence in the pelvis/vulva, as well as spread to lymph nodes in the chest and lungs. She is in a lot of pain, down below. The GP issued codeine but it is not helping, she is struggling even more when having to use the bathroom. What can I do? Her consent chemotherapy appointment is not till 9th September. (And that isn’t the date to start the chemotherapy). I have been given a macmillan support number but they are only open on Monday to Friday from 8am to 4pm.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you in advance.
