Tomorrow is the day to put the picc in so that I can carry around a little bottle of magic potion,oncologist decided that rather than tablets for 6 weeks best I have the picc line.I have heard so many negatives about this option that it scares the heck out of me but I truly dont have an option as I have been assured that this is best for my cancer treatment.I feel very disappointed with my self for being so silly about this when others have to endure so much more,by writing this it just gets it off my chest and also puts things back into perspective.So thanks to this community I have once again found it to be an absolute lifeline. Huge hugs and wishes to all X

Today I recieved a phone call from my oncologist who thought it better that I have my chemo treatment through a pic? rather than the tablets that were suggested on Friday,not sure as to why but have to attend an education session at the hospital tomorrow.The unknown scares the living heck out of me and the change in direction doesn't do much for the heart either.Trying to stay strong and positive like so many people are on this site,learning to draw new strengths and be bigger than fear is one of the hardest things to do.Feel so much better just by putting this out there.Huge hugs and wishes X

Hi Stacey, I hope that you are well and I hope I am not being to forward in asking if you had to have treatment after your operation as I have only just found out that I will need 6 months chemo after the op which totally stunned me.It is the most scary time of my life up till now and it is nice to know there are people out there who care enough to share their own experiences no matter how painful to support others.Hugs and wishes X

Hi Kim can I ask you if you had treatment after your colostomy operation as I nearly choked when the oncologist told me that I would need 6 months chemo after the surgery.I hope you are doing okay and that you dont find this to forward its just nice to know that someone has been through what you are about to go through,and I must confess that it scares the ---- out of me.Huge hugs and wishes X
