Thank goodness you went in when you did, and thank goodness you are safely home. Rest up for the next few days, and get ready for chemo again! Vicki x

Home 🏠 is good. Really pleased they’ve got you back on track. I hate having vein finding missions but if it’s a real problem ask for them to run an ultrasound on your arm it saves all the pin cushion problems. They did this to me on a ward after I said there was no chance of a vein in my left arm. Sadly I was right but it did highlight some in other places

Sleep well

HI, Glad your home and on the the road to recovery, arfter you have had a break can you ask about a port as I said I've had mine for over 3 years with no problems,I feel like I'm at a service station go in get plugged in fill up and go.

I hope your treatment goes well Take care Lorraine xx

They only mentioned one in my neck and not a port, don’t seem to do them as such here but I will mention if they struggle.

Thank you xx

My husband had two bouts of cellulitis. Never heard of it before that. Glad you caught it when you did as it can be quite bad (as they told you!) Glad you are home--recovery is so much easier there when you can actually sleep! Agree the port is very helpful and no more stress when its time to "get a line in". Mine is two years old and no issues. Wishing you a speedy recovery and treatment is smooth when it starts up again. oxox Judy

I’m so pleased you went in when you did, it doesn’t bear thinking about what could have happened. I’m pleased your home and can soon restart your chemo, the cannula isn’t all that bad really so long as you drink lots of water beforehand.

Rest up and get ready to fight those little blighters. Keep well lovely ❤️Xx Jane

Samjane in reply to Cropcrop4 years ago

Thank you, ah never heard of drinking lots of water before, I’ll try that thanks.

I will rest up ready ❤️xx

Glad you’re home - good job you trusted your intuition - hopefully a straight forward cannula an option and chemo goes ahead x

Thank goodness they caught it in time.

I have a friend who had cellulitis too and it could have turned nasty.
