So I have had the last dos of vincristine and daunorubicin for this batch. Yay.
I had to wait some time to have the chemo as my neuropathy in hands and feet has worsened since before the weekend and my consultant was consulted on whether to go ahead with the last does. Of course she said yes, as I should be able to manage the side effects. I finally escaped the ward at 4pm having arrived at 10am and had a very pleasant day:
chat with a couple of other long-termers
visit from work colleague with family and work news
lunch
wrote a couple of letters
chilled from the steroid high!
After the hospital Andrew drove me round to the Jobcentre Plus so that I could get my new Fit Note and payslip scanned and added to my account details. It was only yesterday that I discovered that you can do this in person rather than sending them off to the office in Wolverhampton who then send them in the internal mail to Peterborough which takes 9 working days. Why didn't someone tell me sooner?!
Planning more tidying and more pricking out tomorrow.
