feel let down

so after seeing the oncologist today

was told before we went on holiday that I would be ok to start the chemo soon after my return and that a CT scan would be booked for this visit.

arrived at hospital no CT scan booked and told the goalpost have moved and that when I get results of CT scan and it shows my cancer has not spread enough then I may be refused the docetaxel chemo

so have another months wait for next appointment and possible two week wait for a CT scan

pi**ed off

Sorry to read this Nidge,

on the plus side, might it indicate that they are not unduly worried about you? Concerned yes, worried no?

So, do all you can to help yourself, then make the best of your time. :-)

the issue is that at my last meeting I was told docetaxel was available but it was either stampede or chemo so I decided on chemo, only to be told today it isn't as straight forward, plus its to late for the stampede trials
