Hi everyone, I phoned chemo unit this morning, who were able to tell me that the referral for echocardiogram had been sent. So I phoned cardiology and explained about holiday and surgery. They were do helpful and booked me in for Monday. I then remembered that the hospital pharmacy are delivering meds on Monday and I'm supposed to be in all day. I tried phoning and left a message  but haven't heard back yet. Also messaged macmillan nurse to see if I can now pick up meds from the hospital, no reply yet. Will just have to go to the appointment and see what happens regarding meds. 

Greeny80  I have got an NHS app on my phone, but not sure if letters are on there. Will definitely take a look, thanks xx

Carol  I've never heard of Patient Knows Best  how do you get onto that? Glad to hear your zoledronic infusion went well  definitely more convenient than tablets. Good that you haven't experienced to many side effects either. Annoying about the car park situation, could do without that when you have appointments. Xx

NGS  pleased to hear that your team weren't too concerned about your rash. It's good that you have noticed an improvement  hopefully the antibiotics will work their magic. Great news that you get to take the compression bra off for a little while, I bet that will feel wonderful.  

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Xx

Hi Pippin24   Glad you've managed to schedule your echocardiogram but bummer re meds delivery!  Hopefully someone will get back to you re collecting meds at the hospital.  I take it no-one else will be at home on Monday to take them in for you?

Feeling a bit tired now and shivery (though that might be from the iced coffee lol) so think I'll stop work in a bit and rest up.  Don't want to be ill for the weekend! 

NGS  glad the antibiotics are working and that Cavilon is amazing.  They normally give me some after infusions as I often get a little rash from the tape they use to hold the canular in place.  It's a miracle worker that's for sure!

Have a lovely weekend everyone.  xx
