All ideas and info. provided here are to be discussed with your medical professionals. I am NOT Medically trained. I have merely had this vile disease since 1998 - always use your Common Sense and seek expert medical advice.
YOU MAY FIND THE LINKS in text and in the Right Sidebar of Help.
I can NOT vouch for any external site that I may direct readers to & therefore can NOT accept any legal responsibility - this is a personal blog of that which I believe only.
I do NOT believe there are magical cures hidden from us by our medical professionals though there are without doubt cases that seem cured as if by magic. Medical knowledge of this disease is very rudimentary and research frequently profligate but pointless!
However - sticking goji berries in your ear on a moonless night or similar WILL NOT HELP - Nor will the price paid for quackery be it here OR Mexico, Brazil or China!
There are many health care professionals trying their very best with great care and compassion but perfection is a little way off!

I have cancer - cancer does not have me!

"Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come". - (Julius Caesar - Act II, Scene II).

07-May-2011 - Home at last!

Hi,

Just a quick post!

FIRSTLY -

Don't Dare to be unwell after 12:30hrs. on a Friday through till mid day Monday - NHS Wales has gone to a GIG
NHS Wales New Logo
Tangled thinking Inside The Box
NHS Wales has gone to a GIG

FINALLY two Doctors arrived at about 11:45hrs. both looking a bit bewildered - one female wearing headscarf and alien clothing (Afghan?) and a male also Iran, Iraqi or similar.

I was standing when they arrived and they didn't come into the room merely said my name I confirmed and as I understood it they said you can stay till Monday if you wish or you can go home.

I stated I'd rather go home where I could at least eat, drink and sleep until I saw a competent Consultant on Monday.

My next Consultant meeting is on Monday with Lester at Velindre.

The Doctors left and the ward sister informed me that they had written up a scrip for anti biotics and as soon as they arrived I could go home.

Rachael bless her turned up just before the drugs and finally I got home at about 15:15hrs. - I survived The NHS!!!

I've had a large drink of fruit juice (1 pint of orange) and also a 1 pt. yoghurt and fresh fruit smoothie.

I feel a little less dehydrated and demoralised!

Lee is making a gammon steak egg, mashed potatoes and brocolli as I write and I shall be in bed by about 18:00hrs. at a guess.

All that for a course of anti biotics - >CIPROFLUXACIN 500mg. to take 12 hours apart for 7 days<!

I STRESS the total cock up of this visit to the hospital was NOT the fault of the medical staff and the nursing staff did all they possibly could - This is clearly a case of bad management, incompetent deployment of resources and utterly incompetent structuring of the NHS by idiots who have lost sight of the job.

This is NOT a matter of inadequate money but if anything TOO MUCH money in the hands of the management.

I am disgusted to hear that The Government who are at least trying to put right the 13 unlucky years of economic illiteracy and utter incompetence are now going to be sabotaged by the politicising of The NHS once again, by Nick Clegg TRYING to blame his risible results at the polls on NHS Reforms. For heavens sake someone buy him a mirror and then just look at who the Lib.Dims. have on offer!

They make UKIP Wales look competent!

I just want to say sorry for copping out at times and leaving Lee and friends to cope!
Any help and support YOU can give her will be hugely welcome.
I do make a lousy patient!
