Hi Ladies,
Mum in law went to hosp today and can't have her chemo tomorro as she is still so ill. She still has a water infection, and now the chest infection has become pneumonia. They have told her today though that she must have the treatment next week no matter what or they will have to take her off the drugs trial she is on?
My husband and I are really concerned that they may be compromising her health? i.e she has been diagnosed as terminal so therefore lets just see what happens with this new drug? she was taking milk thistle with her last 6 months of chemo and it was halving her recovery time afterwards from 8 days to 4. This time they have said she can't take it as it will interfere with their results?
what should we do. she is very very upset tonight as she feels like she can't do anything as she's so poorly, can't eat what she wants due to her gallstones, can't go anywhere as she is so weak and is generally very down and feeling ill. we are going up to spend the weekend and taking lucas so she can have some time with her grandson (she says he is what is keeping her going)
what should we do? risk this treatment having good results and her maybe having a few more months but being ill or the time or ask them to stop and go back to the chemo that she had a few months remission on last time. I am so so scared for her, she is very low tonight
I am sorry if I come on here and it's all bad news but I don't know where else to go
kind regards
