5th Herceptin

The usual rush to get Jack sorted and out of the house by 7.45am.

Got the hospital for 8.30am and let them know on West Ward that I was there, so they could 'order' my drugs.

Went downstairs to the Cancer Clinic and booked in there only to be told that although my appointment was at 9am the consultant would be ther until nearer 10am - grrr!!

Anyway, I was seen earlier by his registrar. She said the Echo results were fine and signed me off to have 4 more lots of treatment.

She examined me and said everything was ok. I told her about the pain in my side and she didn't seem too worried as she couldn't feel anything weong with my liver so she's arranging a CT scan for the end of Feb so that when I see the consultant next time the results of that and the next Echo will be with him.

Went back up to the chemo ward and expected to wait a while but was called straight in and started on by 10.15am.

Finished at 12.30 and was back at Mum and Dad's by 12.45am.

Jack was poorly today and had slept most of the morning, so I took advamtage of that and whilst he was sleeping again in the afternoon I went for a lay down...for 2hrs!!

So next one after New Year - Monday 5th and then swapping to Tuesdays from then on.

love Clare xx
