Hi all, havent been on here for a while.
Since new year nan had rradiotherapy to her brain. A week later she has her lungs scanned and they came back clear, the cancer had gone!
Roll on to march. The oncologist FORGOT to book my nan an mri. My nan at this time was how she was before being diagnosed and it was scary to watch. They sent her for an emergencey ct scan which was suppose to be ready for the next day but she was put back yet another week.
The woman said the rradiotherapy hasnt worked, and the cancer has become so aggressive that its completely riddled her brain, and that she only has a couple of months left to live. Devastated is not thr word.
Can aanyone tell me what i should look out for as the nurses hasnt told my nan signs or symptoms about the tumours apart from headaches snd partial blindness? At the back of my nans head it looks like a massive bruise and around it its very fleshy and has an indent in the skin in quite abig circle, should i keep an eye on it?
Is there anything else i should keep my eye on? I live with her so I need to know what to look for so i know how to deal with the situation.
LLast point, nan was on warfarin for less than a month, her blood count was different 3 times a week and accused her of drinking, but obviously it was the cancer attacking the cells... surely they should of picked up on this?
Sorry for going on a bit,theres so much to take in and so many questions x
