Thanks everyone, the day went faster than I thought. I was pretty brave, only cried once at the hospital (and once at home). I blame that on the social worker cause she asked if I was okay right after the bald lady walked in the room 😂
i laughed at my mums face when the nurse asked if she would be able to give me an injection 24 hours after chemo. I rang my local GP and he’s doing it.
I feel quite sinusy at the moment, is that chemo or just because I’ve been crying? It’s like your sitting there waiting for something to happen.
The cannula did give me some pain, it happens every time I have one inserted, worse when the flow was increased. The nurse kept a very close eye on it and was confident it was properly inserted. I think it just me. By the end I had a slight red mark and the cannula hurt when it was being removed. Any tips or suggestion would be appreciated, all my life my experiences with cannula have been painful. The pain is bearable it just makes me anxious. You can see the redness in this photo, it was a lot fainter when the cannula was taken out. And gone by the time I got home.
