Should I carry on with zoladex?

Everything was going alright until last week 🙄

I’ve been getting some pains I used to get before my surgery last year and I’m feeling so down and crying at everything. I’m feeling tired all the time and the hot flushes are getting too much. I’m sick of having no control over my bladder as well 😫

Sorry for the complaining, I just don’t know what to do. I’ve contacted PALS as my consultant won’t see me for my 3 month check up as he’s too busy. PALS are now ignoring me and so is the hospital.

I’m loving not having periods haha and my worse pains even though I will have them in a couple of months at the end of treatment.

However, I’m thinking of stopping treatment now as it’s getting too much.

Any advice would be so helpful rn.

Dear Princessk09,

Really sorry to hear you are feeling so low. Just to double check - are you feeling like this, still being goven the injections, and your consultant and PALS are not responding when you report your concerns about how you are feeling?

Yeah I’m still taking the injections, my 4th one is on Wednesday 10th April. I’ve told them how I’m feeling, getting episodes of depression.

The hospital said he can’t see me in April as he is busy and he didn’t book me in for a 3 month check up so I have to wait till July after my treatment plan is finished.

PALS aren’t even responding to my emails now and then I rang up just to get told “if things go bad, see your GP” I saw my doctor who said contact PALS. I’m going round in circles. Xxx
