As it’s difficult to sleep at night, I do doze a bit in the afternoon. The rest of the time I am alternating reading my Kindle, watching GB News, YouTube, even started playing a few games on my laptop. In all, it is pretty boring. Looking forward to meals and coffee with biscuits in between.

An appointment in only 3 weeks? You're lucky Chris!

What is so annoying is how good the front line staff are. It’s the organisation and incompetent managers letting it down.

One of the common problems, which seems to be the cause of your issue Barrry, is that different departments don't communicate with each other.

.. and the sheer abundance of overpaid 'managers' ...

Seven weeks in bed! I would go absolutely mental. At week on the sofa with a cold and I'm crawling up walls!
Hope things get sorted with the jab.

Stay positive Barry. These new drugs are incredible, taylor made to your individual condition and I am sure you are going to kick this illness into oblivion.

Sorry to hear about the mix up Barry.

Can't be easy being stuck in bed.

Well I had my second oncology jab on the tum and a few minutes later had excruciating tummy pain for which I was given morphine. It finally eased off now. Thankfully.

I now have a specific contact for support and help. I am also told that chemo and other treatments are likely.

For the first time yesterday with help I was able to get out of bed into a chair for an hour. That was nice and a sign of progress.

That's definitely a sign of progress. The jab, sitting in a chair, getting the treatment you need - all progress and mentally puts you in a better place as well.
All the best.

I am OK thanks.
Very frustrated over lack of physio.
Nothing really to report. Keep doing what exercises I can do in bed but legs still flop a lot. Numbness is receding slowly still.
