Now the waiting
So I've had my portacath inserted (totally lost it it the room), had my echo, CT Chest/Abdo/Pelvis and Bonescan. Kinda feel like a science experiment. Now to wait until next wednesday to start chemo...

@sweetpetal I was big and brave and went to my rads consultation by myself. I checked in and went where I was directed to go, got weighed and sat in the waiting room and waited...and waited... Asked if I was in the right place and waited...and waited... Asked how long the doctor would be and told that he wasn't in, someone was filling in for him on another floor and clinic was now over. Directed through the maze of the hospital to the other floor, trying to find my way through the tears. Got to reception and couldn't talk because I was bawling by then. Talk about losing it. And when I did recover, I stayed shaky for the rest of the afternoon. Not my fault but certainly not how I would have reacted pre-bc. They have boxes of tissues around for a reason!
