Good Morning,
I was arrested on Wednesday.
I had met a friend and had a large glass of Rosa Wine, she was driving and after dropped me home at 3pm.
Stupidly at 4.30pm I got in my car and drove to shops to pick up a prescription for my elderly mum.
However I hit a post in the car park in front of the shops. The shop assistant came out to check I was OK, and then called the Police. Police officer said they could smell alcohol so was taken to police station. I blew 48.
I was diagnosed in May with breast cancer and underwent Chemotherapy until end of November, ( haven't had alcohol drink until Wednesday), chemotherapy does not ride well with drinking, followed by Mastectomy December 18th.. I was told due to op not to drive between 3-6weeks due to limitations in movement of arm as lynth nodes were also taken( day of accident was 2nd day I had started driving).
I am still on certain drugs for cancer every 3 weeks until August 22.
Long story short.. they tried to take bloods but my veins are pants and I do have a port in my chest for bloods and chemo, but you have to be a trained cancer nurse to use this. As they couldn't get blood I did a urine sample.
I was interviewed, released and now I'm in no man's land as not sure of outcome. I understand I was over the limit, my frame is petite, 5ft and nearly 7 stone..
So I suppose my question is do they take into account Chemotherapy drugs? My build? I haven't had a drink since June 21.. I also take painkillers. Obviously the stress of cancer over 6 months has not been easy and now this Thank you in advance if anyone can offer me guidance
