barbe1958 you're still in the hospital? I had a horrible need to cough due to the Virox they use to disinfect the mattress and pillows in the hospital. I am sensitized to formaldehyde and it is part of the formula. I was actually using the PCA morphine for that headache, and not for pain from the DIEP. I didn't immediately realize the cause until I rested an arm on a pillow without a pillowcase and my arm skin turned red and rashy. I couldn't recline because when I did, the sinuses would drain into my raw throat and the cough reflex would start. I put the pillows in a corner of the room and it was reduced but not gone. After a couple days, I chucked the pillows out into the hall and put extra sheets over the mattress cover and it was reduced more. Every time I walked around the floor, my nose would run from reacting to this cleanser elsewhere. Formaldehyde isn't an "allergy", it's a "sensitivity", but the reactions are the same. Hope you feel better soon both from the original issue and from the hospital induced cough! [edited to fix font]Diagnosis: DCIS, 4cm, Grade 3, 0/2 nodes0

goldlining, welcome to this thread! Good point about hospital cleaning products...more "industrial strength" than our home products, also other products we might not contact in the home.0

MP answer:
Eph3_12 came the closest with "snow on a foot path light" snow being the key word
It was a close-up of nature's snowball.

Starting rads tomorrow. It's crazy all I've done in the past year and I'm more nervous about this than everything else. Go figure.0 -
Reesie you will do fine. Where are you getting the rads. I thought you had had rads to your thigh? was I wrong about that?
0 -
Thanks Sherry. I did have rads to my tibia and humorous. But that was only ten treatments. That's why I think it's wierd that I'm nervous. I mean I've gone through the steps before.
This will be "normal" rads to my chest area and supraclavicular nodes (just chest on left, nodes too on right).0 -
Reesie use lots of cream. My RO gave me XClair. It is expensive but my insurance covered it and it is really good stuff. I have not heard anyone that has used it not like it. Only good comments about it.

I told my DH that I'm very close to feeling sorry for myself!! Enough already!!!!!!

Heading to the pain specialist tomorrow afternoon. Still dealing with this nerve damage from rads. I am told it is called neuralgia (nerve pain). Treatment is different than fibromyalgia. I can tell you from experience that Lyrica does not work at all for this. I am currently taking amitriptyline and it may just be a matter of increasing the dose. Will let everyone know what happens.

jo, i wasn't aware that you had nerve damage from rads and i'm so sorry. i hope you get some relief from the pain specialist. i'll be thinking about you tomorrow.0
