Not to myself but I had to administer daily injections to my mother which was pretty horrible tbh. |  |

Yes I had to do exactly the same thing for three weeks after getting my leg mangled up by a core drill. |  | | |

Fair play to you, that sounds about as far from fun as you can manage. | |

I can work but I can't easily commute so I am living in Nodge most of the week at the moment. I can drink what I want but am cutting down and I can't risk walking on crutches when pissed in case I do more damage. I have a wheelchair but it's a pain unless someone is pushing you.
I had to have a new cast put on Monday and the nurse gave me a bit of a b0llocking. She looked at the old cast and said "You've been hobbling about on this haven't you", I admitted it and asked what the problem was. She said that I had been advised to put no pressure on it and if I do then the screws holding the plate might snap and if they do then they can't do anything about it.
On a positive note she asked what colour cast I would like and I advised "Ipswich Blue", this was in The Norfolk and Norwich hospital. | |

I've been doing this since September, deltaparin is no friend of mine, my torso is one giant bruise. Think yourself lucky it's only for five more weeks, mine will probably be for the rest of my life. |  |

Sorry about that Lucan, sounded a bit rude and dismissive when I read my post back, it's just a very sore subject if you'll excuse the pun.
If they offer you warfarin as an alternative, don't take it, evil stuff. | |

Are we talking proper syringes here, or the sort of thing I use for insulin? Tiny little things for injecting just under the skin. They're bad enough and twice a day. Anything larger must be a nightmare. |  |

I'm ok thanks Steve, last chemo and bio therapy next week followed by a scan, hopefully it will show I've stabilized and I'll have a holiday from the treatment. | |

Came across as you trying to make a joke of a horrible situation, so don't be worrying.
Hope your treatment goes as well as it can. |  |
