I had my discharge meeting yesterday every thing went well my community nurse was there via video link every one is on the same page regarding  my care they will let my gp know what’s going on  also . 

My next injection is in 3 weeks time which they will arrange for me and let me know how it all works I think I have to go to my  community base but my nurse will come out and do it for me at home first for the first few times . I’m Now discharged from the hospital back to the community and they wished me all the best and said in the nicest way they hope they don’t see me again ha xxx

@cupcake88 Great news!! I'm glad the discharge meeting went well and it sounds like you have a firm plan in place for your future treatment.  It's time to enjoy those home comforts and being back with your partner.  I'm doing well too thank you, managing to keep those cravings in check kinda... ish...    What can I say, the baby likes Monster munch and cookies?!

cupcake88

Not coping well today with the side effects I’m so down today I hate that my medication that’s effecting me so badly I can’t just stop taking it as it’s injected in my system . I’m so down and I can’t relax . It’s taken me a hour just to write this my hand is shaking my legs are restless and I’m thinking I rather be mentally I’ll than feel like this these side effects are horrible I’m so very down my  friends xxx

Hang in there, @cupcake88 -  I can't imagine how bad these side effects are, but they will subside (hopefully sooner rather than later). Keep that inner strength & positivity you have...you will overcome my very dear friend. Hopefully the next few days will be better. We're all here for you remember, just hang onto that, & post when you can. Sending all the support, love & hugs I can, xxx

@cupcake88 Aww, I'm sorry to hear things are a bit wobbly.  How are you today?

Side-effects are no fun at all but as @chiarieds said, they will pass and it will get easier.  Make sure to take it steady and be kind to yourself, resting if you need to and being open with us and your loved ones about how you're feeling.  Have you spoken with your care team about it?  If not, and you still feel the same, it might be worth giving them a call for their input/reassurance.  

I hope today's a better one for you and remember we're all behind you

@cupcake88. Morning I’m so sorry to read your not feeling so good. I really hope things start to settle for you soon.

Keep talking as Cher sd ask your workers for advice and support.
Maybe you could try doing something as a distraction. Reading jigsaw or drawing.
I understand it’s easier sd than done but might help.

Take care ❤️Xx

@cupcake88 So sorry to hear that you're having difficulty with the side effects from your medication. 

As everybody has already said, just make sure that you keep in touch with your care team. Often, just talking to others and getting some reassurance about what you're going through can help to ease things.

Remember as well, just how far you've come and all of the days that you've got through so far. This is another one of those days and you will get through it, just like you have done with all the others. 

You take care
