Results

I was sent my MRI results from Addenbrookes, via my MyChart app as it seems nobody was available to ring me and explain the results in layman's terms. The medical jargon was hard to understand. 
It seems my cervical cancer has spread lower down in my cervix etc but not yet in my bladder or rectum. Nice to know. Yippee, but still terminal  though.
Also had a routine blood test and GP phoned with results. I'm dehydrated, slightly anaemic with dodgy kidney function. 
GP didn't seem to think there was a connection between my cancer and some of the results. Really?  Don't they read your medical history or know what side effects brachytherapy can do to one's bowels? Constant diarrhoea and nausea, despite drinking plenty of water. 
 No wonder I'm dehydrated, plus anaemia possibly due to losing small amounts of blood. You would think they'd join the dots. Still, what do I know. I'm just a stupid old woman.
