Re: Need input!
Hi Andi
Had bone scan on Monday and leg/pelvis x-ray yesterday.
Bone scan confirmed 2 lesions in area mentioned before. X-rays being sent to Oncologist and Orthopaedic Surgeon. My Nurse did remark that if a major problem "x-ray staff would not have let me leave the x-ray unit or would have called her to stop me leaving ward." So can't be in imminent danger of fracturing my femur. I was a bit p..... off with this remark and said that "I sincerely hoped I was not at that stage already" Talk about making things worse!
I can't shake the feeling that my treatment is not right for me & that I am looking at hip joint replacement (worse case scenario). Added to this is the indecision about zometa and dental treatment.
Its a bit worrying when your normally decisive Nurse becomes indecisive and uncomfortable with you. Should have insisted on Zometa yesterday. So on Monday I will have to go and speak to my Dentist again & ask for reassurance for my Nurse, more than for me.
As I said before - one step back again.
