Hi everyone, it has been a while since I last updated.
Not much has changed to be honest, I'm not really feeling great at the moment, I am a little run down, and my chest is a bit rubbish. I've had one weeks worth of an antibiotic called augamentin duo, however that hasn't helped, and if anything i am feeling worse than I was a week ago. We went back up to the hospital today and I got another two weeks worth of Cipro (another antibiotic).
We're trying to put off having my IVs at the moment as I would have to have a long line in my arm again, since I haven't got my new port yet!
I am getting my new portacath on October 21st, so that's the date I'll be starting my IVs. I'm excited to have my port again, and to get rid of 'Boris' (the bump that appeared on my chest) as it can be a little painful sometimes. But at the same time I am obviously a little nervous as it's still under a general anaesthetic and it can cause pain after the operation. I will update about this after my operation, but hopefully this port will last longer than 2 months! *Fingers crossed*
Anyway, it's my 17th birthday on the 15th, next Thursday to be exact.
I'm excited as I've sent off for my provisional drivers licence so I will be able to learn to drive, finally! I am also going to b going out shopping with my family, and then going to velocity trampoline park at the weekend with one of my friends so it should be good!
That's all for now, I will update soon.
As always Thankyou for reading,.
Speak soon,
Emily xo
