    Thanks everyone for your responses. Sorry it took so long for me to get back on. Mom seems to be ok, yes I did speak to one of the PAs on call and she said that all should be fine. I personally think she might have cracked a rib because she has a lot of pain on that side. Since then we have been to our Dr office for chemo and blood work and everyone is under the same feeling that it will work itself out and be fine.

    Hi Prayingformom,

    Sorry to hear of your mum having a fall, were you able to speak with a doctor today to see what they advised? Also, is your mum on any medication that could make her drowsy such as pain meds or sleeping tablets?

    My best wishes to you and your mum,

    Gavin

    I am sorry to hear of your Mom’s tumble. Most likely she is alright however, I agree with Kathy. A phone call with the physician is in order. It will put your mind at ease.
    Best wishes,

    Can you call your oncologist and ask what to do? Someone should be on call, if he/she is not available.

    Ok, so I get a call this AM from my dad telling me Mom took a fall and he needed my help. When I got here she had a big bump over her eye and a bad bruse on your arm. She seems to be ok, just shaken up. My concern is all of her blood counts were low this week after chemo and I am concerned about bleeding. BUT it’s christmas eve and I would hate to rush her to the emergency room because I am being paranoid. Any thoughts?
