It was Jan Henry's first day in a new job at the hospital where she had worked in A&E when she made the grim discovery
A nurse starting the first day of her new job in Cumbria was left facing a 50% chance of survival when she discovered marks on her tights were really bruises.
"However, upon a closer look, the marks were actually purpuric bruises." Jan showed one of her new colleagues, a rheumatology specialist nurse who immediately got me in to see her consultant. "Despite my career as a nurse Sister in A&E, I had no prior experience of leukaemia. On arrival at the hospital, we had a frank, scary but positive discussion with the Professor. I had a 50% chance of surviving the first round of chemotherapy.
But the full scale of what she was facing only hit home when she had the Hickman line fitted, reports BristolLive. This gives long-term access to a patient's veins and can be used for everything from chemotherapy and intravenous medication to nutrition and to draw blood. "I was determined I would recover before my son’s birthday, and I did! The chemotherapy sent me into my first remission. Sighs of relief all around."
"I went home to be with my family, and four weeks later I was back in my isolation room having my third round of chemotherapy. Round four came, and I was back in Manchester preparing for a bone marrow transplant. I was told it would increase my chances of survival to 60%.
