  • Thinking of you, as ever, taxi.

    So glad someone is on your case psychologically now (even though you had to jump through hoops before anyone saw fit to find out what was causing you so much distress and then begin help you).

    The fungal infection sounds nasty, lets hope it clears up very soon now you've been given some cream for it.

    Big hugs :grouphug:

    Oh Taxi, its on so many levels, isn't it. At least the psychologist can see the level of distress you're in, and will be chasing up for you. I really hope you can turn a corner with all this - and, like you say, find out the cancer is gone and you can stop the chemo, I'm sure that would be the *biggest* boost for you.

    Not a lot to say here
    I haven't been well for the last few days ..had the runs thursday and came down with a stinking cold yesterday..the cream is working well but my arm that has the picc line was getting redder and redder and harder inspite of the antibiotics.
    Haven't been anywhere fun or done anything fun as it's too cold and not feeling good.
    Was due to have my CT scan yesterday morning and when I got there I felt so ill and explained to them how I felt and all my symptoms..they were willing to still do the scan but they had a word with the DR who agreed with me that it was probably best not to do it with everything else going on as my body is fighting hard enough at the moment with all this other crap...so am booked in for next thursday.
    Whilst at the hospital we popped in to the chemo suite to have my arm looked at they decided to take my picc line out there and then and my arm is now starting to get better.
    Hopefully I should be feeling a lot better by next week for the scan
    So there we have it very boring indeed

    Boring but resilient Taxi. If you want straight boring you need to be looking at my love life.
