    She is doing much better. Hopefully that will continue once she's off of the antibiotic. How are you feeling today?

     Last month I asked for a short break from treatment because I was beginning to feel a bit worn down from it, too which my onco agreed and so this week on an emergency basis for a problem, she extended my break from treatment til my next appointment with her in Oct.

    Waiting is the pits.

    If you're in a lot of pain, I agree with your GD.

    We need both of you here. Who else will provide the comic relief?

    Fk, thinking of you! So sorry you are feeling so poorly. If you go to the hospital, maybe they will finally find a solution for you. And I hate hospitals, but maybe it would help?

    Talked to my DD this morning and her C.diff test came back negative this time.

    I guess the last antibiotic did get rid of it.

    Back to the drawing board to figure out what's wrong with her.

    Now they are checking for an autoimmune disease. Very frustrating.

    Thanks ladies....I hope they figure it out soon. She's too young for this stuff - only 26.

    Poppy, how are you doing with your chemo SEs?

    GG, So good to see you here!! I've been wondering about you.

    Kracker.....any news??

    Nice visit with the MO today.... wasn't poked, prodded or stabbed by anything or anyone!

    Side effects are subsiding. Couldn't sleep last night... finally fell asleep at 4:30am. Today, MO prescribed something to help with that. Nausea thankfully under control. Still fuzzy brained, which is frustrating! Vasculitis from the infusion has left my arm so sore and discolored. The infection at my port site is improving. I am finally feeling better.

    Thanks for the encouragement!

    Glad to hear you're doing better Poppy.

    Hopefully whatever the MO prescribed will help with the sleep.

    I'll join you FireKracker! Latest side effect from chemo is horrible cramping, then.... you guessed it... a run to the bathroom. Okay, maybe a quick waddle, not a run....

    Hello gals! Been a while since I've been here.

    Wanted to share that I had my 6-mo check-up today (well, I see that it is 1:15AM, so technically, yesterday, Wed.) & everything is fine & dandy! Labs good. Appointment set for Oct 23 for yearly mamm. Be glad when that is over......

    Heading up north (we say that in MI when we are heading north of wherever we are!) But, I am truly heading north as I'm going to the Upper Peninsula to Lake Superior to play with my Grandchildren & enjoy the fall colors - though, I have a feeling the best weekend was last weekend as the weather is forecasting clouds, some rain, wind, & even some .............. snow showers!!! NO!!!! I don't want that yet!!!!

    Take care everyone!
