    Joan  z pak 2pills the  first day and then one pill for the next four days------covers you for two weeks, but if you don't take two pills the first day you can't get to threshold blood level for ever. used to be able to say exact, but now  can't. Had to teach the doc's/ nurses and even the pharmasists when the drug came out. It was read the instructions thing. By stopping the drug you allow whatever the bacteria is , to gain resistance to the drug. BAD. Plus are you on AI's or Tamox?  They reduce immunity to infections.  Pm me if the yeast is bad  Sheila

    How's the fire? Onto it some aggravation about how we are not respected for our choices. Have to let it go.

    Is that you Granny Dukes? Don't change your avatar until you answer me ok?

    Sassy - I love the blues. Also the old r & b, my favorite, some jazz too.  I am going to your thread next, we need more music in our lives.  I use Pandora a lot. 

    Jo - ssssssoooooooo good to know one is on top and am so happy for you.  Ran the long run, and I am not talking a pink one either, it was black and blue and you are doing so well.  

     The storm is here and feels like the house will blow away, other than that we still have computer, so going to work a few hrs then to bed and up well before dawn, loving it!

    Let's have some smores and listen to blues.

    LOVEEssa

    sas-Sheila, you have me L-ing OL Tongue out
    I am feeling better ... not sure I needed the Zpac but took it because I was supposed to go to Disney (didn't)...I skipped the last pill and don't think I didn't whirl it around in my head asking 'how did they arrive at just this dose....it must be important and I am risking a relapse'  (So, should I go find that last pill and take it anyway?) 
    I'd like to throw the virus/bacterium into the fire so nobody else can catch it.
    Happy last few hours of the week end....

    PS has to take out the left expander tomorrow. The skin is not cooperating. He wants to do it before chemo before my blood count drops. Safer that way. Sooooooo.......

    Into the fire with the expander.

    I'll be flat on one side. More body image problems.

    No. We will go to Plan B, latissimus dorsi flap after chemo. Meantime he gave me a script for a falsie. Tonight I am taking my anti-anxiety med early. I don't want to think about it.

    Veggy I celebrate- your words of acceptance----a boob is not worth your life----I can say this b/c had I not acted when I did and did what I did, I would not be writing to you now. If someone needs to have an explanation of that statement I will write it . I just don't want to be repetitive when everyone knows the story. I have no idea what shoe will drop tomorrow, but I do know the decisions made 2009, are the reason I'm still here.

    I am home from my procedure. The PS took some saline out from the expander and cut around were the breast would't heal. He sewed me up. I don't have any drains. I;m kinda loppy from all the drugs.

    Besides having a sore throat for having a tube down my throat, I'm just loopy. The pain killers are definitely doing their job. :)

    I was awake every two hours checking on the time and running to the bathroom. Drinking lots of water makes you go and go. I don't have much pain but just exhausted. I need to eat something and take my first morning nap.

    Hugs - gentle of course

    Veggy - Don't fight sleep.  If you are tired, so to bed.  It's your body telling you it needs the rest.  Hugs!

    Drinking all day makes it sound like I have a drinking problem. I start drinking water at four in the morning. I'm down to one cup of coffee every other day. Drinking herbal teas. Being extra good. Except that I was eating chocolate and my DH finished the bar on me. Meanie!
