know what HE/WE done to deserve this but i hope at least one of us enjoyed it................

Hello Rusty Jasper4

That is totally understandable to feel like screaming ....so beeping frustrating ......when you just want your partner to feel better.

Was there no suggestions to help ease symptoms/ pain in meantime?

Perhaps try GP for this Annoying but maybe worth a try?

I hope an appointment comes through quickly for biopsy so you get some useful answers asap.

It is a cliche but it is very much true one day at a time.

Macmillan nurse help line are good and open every day you both may find helpful whilst in this not knowing place ....

Remember you are not alone 

Sending strength RB

Thanks for kind/supportive words...still trying to juggle work/home.

Hi Rusty_Jasper

Us? Hubby is the one fighting to ....that is Cancer ....almost 18 months in now.  Oesophageal and secondaries so not curable but still here!

The bit you and your partner are at  was mix of shock and waiting to be seen by Oncologist / start treatment for us too. 

Fatigue is common at all stages from what I read from others on the forum and a huge adjustment.

And is heart breaking seeing them slow right down ....so big hug.to you both. 

I guess id say make the most of the moments of not so tired and definitely keep up fluids and if not eating ...protein drinks are good ...

We are all here doing the best we can

No question too small

Look after yourself too....very important 

Kindest wishes

RB
