    I was lucky.  My RO provides a weekly free massage to all of his patients, who want it.  It feels wonderful...

    I was wondering why I didnt' almost fit in the darn CT  - I had really big pockets!!!!!!!!!! The morning barium was hard to get down.....and that plus nerves plus stress from work plus tiredness, my stomach rebelled against the barium - or maybe it wasn't vegan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol. 

    Thank you all for your well wishes, humor, and friendships.  I never understood how people could make friends on line, well, I get it now!  Happy Gobble Gobble to you all, and smile tomorrow as we all know exactly what we are thankful for!

    Barb-My good thought for you this morning is that your mammo will be clean and you'll start the New Year with peace of mind and good health.

    Question

    How long did it take your wbc to recover after rads? Mine was just tested at 3.1and I finished rads the first of middle of sept.

    Barb - Sending positive thoughts for BP results.  HUGS

    Merilee, I am concerned about WBC as well. It was fine all through chemo (I did have neulasta shots.)

    Now, it is 2 point something. Does rads make it go down? I just finished rads on 11/11.

    I don't know but getting the results in the mail has triggered my PTSD and I am all freaked out about it.

    Kay I do think rads can make your wbc go down.  I did not have chemo but after rads my wbc was lower than normal
