I learnt to visit the Emergency department 😱😅🤔
3 hospital emergency visits to stay on top of met bc issues as GP not available

Lung pain at 2 am ....might be blood clots.. ct scan in emergency no ..just pain from nodule
Lower back and rectum pain found a colon specialist who recommended MRI ...showed hamstring tear caused inflamation but Oncologist recommended bone scan to be safe no progression by july .
So many diary entries for 2020
Phone contact with gp and specialists is very advantageous
Last weeks Onc visit was also to meet the Mc Grath met nurse 🎉
A mask is my best friend😷
Awaiting latest scan results
Cheers
