Can't wait till I have the energy to go and get my nails done. It makes u feel so nice to have well manicured nails, and painted pink, bet they look amazing. Teal or pink for the cast, both will look great.

I'm having my first chemo after the op tomorrow, just carbo to start with. Then two carbo taxol and that's it, I'm on countdown now 6 weeks to finish line if all goes to plan. So not too much longer before I will be sat having my nails done. Hoping to get away at the end of August too, just somewhere quite local to start. I just keep thinking the finish line is in sight.

Hope you are doing well other than breaking things,

Mandy,

So sorry to hear this, but you're not alone!

We had a family break between surgery and chemo starting for breast cancer. I fell on the ice and broke my wrist. Interesting to see the inside of a German hospital, but not really what we had in mind!

I hope it's not your "main" arm.

Good luck xx

I feel your pain. I had OC in 2014, and my life has become a comedy of errors. The latest is when I dropped a 26 pound solid brass lamp on my foot Feb. 2nd this year. I'm on Coumadin, a blood thinner, for a clotting problem discovered when I had a stroke in 2008. So my foot reacted badly to this insult, turning every color of blue possible and really hurting,. As I thought it should be healing, it started turning red and became more painful. I had cellulitis. I felt like I needed to be wrapped in "cotton wool" as my mother used to say. But no calamities since that took its sweet time healing. No more mishaps for you, my dear. Take care, Nesie237

Hi D

Sorry to hear about your recent unscheduled trip to hospital. I find that the ' ordinary ' encounters with the medical profession more stressful than they would be in the pre big C days. I had a very bad foot infection recently and I found that waiting for the antibiotics to work upset me more than waiting for chemo to work ! That's just me D and I am sure with your positive attitude its just a blip. I have done the broken wrist thing a few years ago so I got very expert at being left handed. Onward and upward but not too fast this time !

Bummer! I hope it heals soon - this is the last thing you need!!

As Gilda Radnor ssid, "It`s always something!"

HI D so sorry to hear you ended up in hospital with a broken wrist. I think you should go for a teal cast, I doubt if they will match your nail colour but you can ask? It never rains but it pours. Here I am after hip xray and mri, the report floated down to the Oncology team so its inflamation. So the last words the Oncologist said to me in May was " I can see you are not impressed and you dont want to see a Rheumatologist so therefore you wont be going back to your gp for results and referral. I laughed and said no. But my next Onc apt is August and I really do have go to gp before I go back to him. I am the most reluctant patient going!!!!!!!!!!!! We do get enough of it. I wish you well and hope the break heals fast

Oh dear poor you. I broke my arm a couple of months after coming off second line chemo. I think I was still a bit wobbly. Now it's 6 weeks after 3rd line and I have fallen a few times though fortunately just got a bit grazed and bruised. I hope you heal quickly x
