things going downhill fast, awaiting emergency doctor.

[onlyjoking9329]

Steve has got much worse since yesterday morning. he was sick six times and he is the same today, he has a lot of swelling around his head and eye
i phoned the docs and got thou to NHS direct.
they asked if steve would go into hospital, had to say no as he wants to stay at home.
just need to get the swelling, pain & sickness sorted out.
the doctor will be here within an hour

no the doctor not here yet, my "hour" and the NHS "hour" can mean different things entirely

I'm very sorry to hear this oj. Thinking of you all.

peace and love, OJ and Steve.

thinking of you all - you are such an inspiration oj

Your an amazing woman oj. I've been sat on my lazy bum most of today moaning about being on my own to clean up, your and Steve's situation puts it all into perspective.

well i am sat on my bum right now watching out for the doctor.

you deserve a meal for your sense of humour at such a difficult time

you are all in my thoughts and prayers

Oh dear

I've been wondering how Steve was doing, must have missed recent threads - hope the doc is quick (and dishy!) and can sort him out, and let him stay at home if at all possible.

You are great, you know, oj

(And you def deserve a meal!)

Sorry but

i think steriods will help him, we have spoken to oncologist before about the swelling and steriods but they are not keen on using steriods as they are harmful in long term use

wow thats 2 meals, why thankyou if you could make one of them a curry that would be fab

opps , obviously meant to say you deserve a medal

meals are more useful than medals thou

Oh OJ, haven't been on much lately but was so hoping this wasn't you, but someone with an emergency ingrown toenail....

Thinking of you, hoping dr is quick, dishy and has a basket full of steriods etc.

My thoughts are with you.

Just seen this OJ(and thanks for your reply to my post.)Your poor dh.I hope the doctor arrives soon and that h can do something to help with all the swelling and sickness.

thinking of you all x

Thinking of you and Steve, hope the Dr has been able to help

So sorry OJ.

Doc has been he was not dishy very nice. he has told us to use the anti sickness tablets that steve usually has only on mondays and thursdays (when he has some other meds) so he is to have the ondansatron £7.19 per tablet. the consultant didn't want steve to have them everyday cos of the cost i reckon.
there is little point giving him cheap anti sickness that doesn't work as he isn't keeping the chemo tabs down and they cost 15K

So sorry to hear Steve is sick and suffering. Hope the anti sickness tablets help - did he get anything to help with the swelling?

no he didn't will see the consultant tomorrow thou

oh poor steve and poor you, i will cross everything that the sickness gets sorted out.
is it hospital tomorrow?
how are the kids?

OJ, I am so sorry you are going through this. I have never posted on yout threads before, but I have always admired your strength and the fact you can keep your sense of humour in the most awful circumstances.

I hope that Steve will feel more comfortable later. Good luck at the hospital tomorrow
