I took Martha to the doctors' today. She had an MOT and has to go back tomorrow for blood tests. I agreed to the blood tests, because I am hoping that they find nothing at all, which will free Martha to recover. Our appointment was an hour late.
While we are waiting, I have become shivery and chilled. With the doctor, I ask if I can borrow the thermometer, and the doc says no! I add that I only want to take my temperature, and she laughed because she thought I wanted to take it home. Temperature taken, and I have a fever over 38 degrees. She then gives me an MOT, and prescribes antibiotics, that I am instructed not to take until she has called me to confirm that this is the best option.
On the way home, I drink paracetamol and then wonder if I should call Christies. I decide not to, however, I had not realised that the doctor was phoning Christies, so they call me. The person who rings me goes to check with my consultant what we should do next, and fortunately, they decide that I should take the antibiotics and continue the chemotherapy.
I go back to the docs tomorrow for Martha's blood test. I am booked in for an MRI scan, in the afternoon. I am thinking that I may have to postpone it.
My mum has arrived today, and has gone to watch Charlie, tonight. I am very relieved that I went last night. If I hadn't, I would not have been able to see it at all.
That's it for now.
loads of love
