Supposedly my nab- Paclitaxel was not Expired- Do you trust them??
So I had my fourth round yesterday, my appointment was at 2.00pm.
During my flushing, they went to set up my vitamins (what I call my chemo drug - little things help) and realised the labeling said expired 2.00pm.
They rang the chemist, who then rang the drug company and asked ??? not really sure. They ended up ringing back and said the label was incorrect and should of said 2.00am - go ahead with treatment.
Too much googling makes you worry about drug companies and costs lol.
As I am sure everyone gets me when I say I didn't really want to be there and I would do anything to get out of the treatment - was it a sign ??
I said to the Nurse - do you trust them - she said yes.
I was advised if I didn't do it, I would not get another treatment till my following scheduled round. The nurse said you have to trust them.
My mind was racing - the thoughts that were swirling (surprisingly I never thought to ring my Oncologist) - pressure I took my vitamins!
Now of course the next morning I realise I have questions to my Oncologist (we never discussed this) and thought in the mean time I would ask if this happened to anyone else? What did you do? Were you worried?
