Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
The nurse phoned me later to see how I was and told me I can also take paracetamol which has made a big difference. I hope you don't think I am not bothered about Maz's problems, she and I are email pen pals so do not need to air our problems on here, just have a good moan together.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Don't go mad when you are pain free, you suffer for it later as I have learned. I wish I could get pain free, it is affecting my rib cage now. I see the specialist next week so hopefully I will get a scan to see what is going on.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Have had a load of pain in my back by my shoulder blades - thank goodness for the oramorph. Got notified today I have got the attendance allowance Lynne sorted out back dated to 26th Nov. Think a cleaner is going to be sorted.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS

Yes it was Lynne, I will show it her when she returns on Monday. The doctor rang last evening to say my blood test shows I have an infection somewhere in my body, so I see him this afternoon. I don't get the oromorph until this morning Maz.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
You don't usually get info. at a pre op, it is usually paperwork and tests done by nurses.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
It was good going with the volunteers as you rarely got the same one twice, so there was plenty of chat. The downside was there was sometimes a wait for a driver for the return trip.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
One good benefit we do have are the volunteers who drive people to hospital appointments if needed, I made full use of them when I had to go to Preston every day,it would have been too much for Fred.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS
Ian & Stanley are lucky to have good backup - I get a phone call once a month from the district nurses. I needed some stronger pain killers, went to the doctors, she gave me co-codomol and has written to the oncologist for advice- no reply after 2weeks!
