Re: Chemotherapy
I had chemo-therapy last year (Rituxomab) for four weeks, apart from a slight feeling of 'weird' on the first occasion and they having to slow down the speed of the drip, I was fine. Unfortunately this drug didn't work for me and the Thromocytopenia returned with a vengeance. So now I have to injections in the stomach weekly with something called Romiploistin. So far it is working to kick-start my bone marrow to produce more blood platelets and I'm gradually returning to the normal platelet levels I should have. The whole process has taken a year though, to date and it probably means continuing with this regime of injections indefinitely.Re: Chemotherapy

I have my bloods and line flushed done at the local hospital too which saves a trip to Scarborough. The district nurse could do them but I could be waiting in all day, at least I get an appointment at the hospital and the staff are lovely.
