So, it is off to the hospital shortly for blood tests.
Until I have those blood tests I won't have a clue as to whether I will have chemotherapy today. I am also unclear as to whether the radiotherapy will proceed unconditionally or whether I will need a blood transfusion first. I am assuming that it will go ahead, but I will ask on arrival.
The reason for the lack of clarity is that I was given the news of the blood tests yesterday and asked to go for a filgrastim boosting injection off the back of a telephone conversation with my specialist nurse. The questions I am posing above were not asked and I need to have a proper conversation with her or a doctor to find out what the plan is.
