Please could one of the ovacome nurses advise as I have been taking 'one' treosulfin for last 24 hours instead of the 'two' as prescribed three times a day. Really worried that this will effect my treatment plan?

Kind Regards

Hi Coco,

The helpline nurses are not back till Monday. Dont panic. AT least you haven't overdosed!

I suggest you call the hospital and ask them to bleep the on call oncologist for gynaecology. You will speak to one of the doctors and they will advise you what to do.

Best wishes
