    Ditto from me! Three hours at a party for a 3 year old! My head would be echoing!

    I know you feel your life is boring, Taxi, and you're tired with everything that you're going through, just to say, hope you're doing okay, and not feeling too down with everything that you're coping with

    Things have not been very good the last few days.
    Had to see oncolgist monday due to some bleeding etc...this resulted in being given some very strong antibiotics which make me feel rubbish and being took off the Avastin.
    I was due my Taxol chemo yesterday but decided not to have it as the antibiotics when given by the chemist in no uncertain terms said if you get watery or bloody stools on these you have to go straight to A & E so I certainly didn't want chemo to encourage this as would be back to square one.
    I could barely move my right arm as the entry point for the PICC line was red and swollen so I couldn't straighten my arm.
    I have sore spots on my head and face,had piles, constipation and bleeding and sore
    Have slept loads and have been feeling quite sorry for myself really.
    I was very surprised that blood counts were ok
    Onc is hoping that bleeding is not from the Avastin but it is known for it and doesn't want to risk it at the moment so am off that for at least a few weeks to see if the problems I have clear up
    Nothing much to say really

    Really sorry to hear this Taxi, I hope the bleeding stops and they find out what is causing it. You're allowed to feel sorry for yourself and sleep loads, it's what your body needs.
