Re: not coping

thank you @creative_writer

@tyme the treatment i am suppose to be having but was cncelled is the only thing that helps keep my pain under control and be able to stay mobile. without it i have to take more of the stronger pain relief but it starts to make me to tired and i cant work but the pain also drives me crazy and stops me working, driving, living really.
its a very hard treatment with alot of side effects but it lasts about 6 months so i can still go to work, go for walks, and function semi-normally on most days bar some flare ups or bad days.
im already having to reduce my working hours or call in sick because im unable to fullfill duties or im in to much pain and need to be able to take some relief.

Sending you lots of love and care @outlander .

I just want to embrace you and look after you. You've spent years and years looking after others. It's about time you were looked after.

I hope you get the support you need in terms of the pain relief. I'm sorry your treatment was cancelled. Is there any way they will 'uncancel' it???

Re: not coping

thank you @tyme @Snowie @Appleblossom @creative_writer @Emelia8 @Eve7 @Sans911 @Shaz51 and everyone

I had received some good news this morning that my treatments have been reapproved and i have made a new time to go and be admitted towards the end of this month. as ive been approved for my original treatment and the new one as well ill be there for about 2 weeks this time and have to have 3 days off work when i arrive back home but im thankful that i can finally do my treatments.

there are still alot of things that need to be worked through but this is a positive that i needed.

i have a minor surgery next week that requires a few days off work but it should help as well and then the bigger treatments in a few weeks.
