A Diary Of A Mesowarrior Living With #Mesothelioma #Asbestos — My Covid 19 Test at The Royal Marsden

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yesterday was a crazy ride to the Royal Marsden.

Treatment day was upon us again but the traffic is back to normal. Got to the M26 and that was it everyone was stopped.

We waited and waited and after an hour we actually started moving, very slowly inch by inch we got to the M25 and joined the traffic as we slowly inched along.

Then when we got to Clackets Lane Services we at last got going and arrived at the Hospital at 10am.

My bloods were taken and I did my Covid 19 test I saw the Doctor, who was pleased with me and waited for blood results.

When they came through at 2pm I rushed out to Ray who had been waiting all that time .He had been kept amused by a driver who messed about so much he backed into a wall and drove off after banging into a mans door. Ray said it was like comedy film being played he couldn’t believe what he has seen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

We had to get to the Tyre garage as we had ordered a new tyre as we had a very slow puncture. We were so nervous driving and we had to get there by 4pm.

We made it and the tyre was soon changed. The owner was saying that business is so bad he really doesn’t know what the future holds.

Home at last we had Dinner

This morning up and out it was so different.

Straight to the hospital I went in at 8-15, mask on, hands sanitized and up to the ward.

ECG done, drug infused the other drug injected and I was all done by 10.15am That was really good going.

Rules have been changed with the Covid-19 testing.

I have been given a kit to take a sample on the Monday before my next treatment day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have to swab the back of my throat by the tonsils, Well I haven’t got any so I guess, Then I put into the container, put that into another holder and right the date on it.

Pop these into a paid envelope.

I then enter my postcode on line https://www.royalmail.com/services-near-you#/

This shows me what boxes are near me.

At least I feel safe going to hospital now they are really doing all they can to keep the virus out of the hospital.
