    Hello Lucy, 

    I am so sorry to hear about your mum. You did well to call the ambulance after your mum had severe chest pains and I hope that they looked after her well in hospital. Poor her she seems to be going through an awful lot at the moment. I hope she is a bit better now she is at home and that the meds have helped. 

    You're not rambling at all - you've come to the right place to talk to others who may have been in a similar situation. If you wanted to have a chat to our cancer nurses, don't hesitate to ring them on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

    I hope your mum feels better soon and that they discover what exactly is wrong. It must be so distressing for you but it's good you called the ambulance that day and hopefully they did some investigations at the hospital to find out more. You're obviously a very caring daughter and I am sure your mum appreciates all your concern and everything you've done for her in recent days.

    Best wishes, 

    Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
