    Hope my hubby can get his soon too. He works at a college and I worry about him getting it.

    rain & octo - My daughter lives in Manhattan & my sister in Stamford, CT. Eagerly awaiting the time when I can travel again to see them both. Perhaps we can arrange for a rendezvous? Hoping that travel is possible in late summer or in autumn this year.

    Celia, absolutely! Always glad to meet fellow travelers on the BCO boards. Sending you a PM. The forced separation from family and friends is one of the hardest parts of this L*O*N*G year!

    Hi Ladies, I'm feeling anxious. Tomorrow, I have 6-month appointment with MO and Zometa infusion. I also have few concerns I need to ask him about, hip pain that has been lingering for almost a year and it is getting worst, and also my right flank pain since December. Blood tests will check how my liver and kidney are handling medications. Wish me luck Hug

    Hi beautiful Ladies! I have been feeling your positive energy. Thank you!

    I am back, a bit tired after Zometa infusion but OK. This time, different from the last time when I had a list of questions, I did bit my tongue and didn't ask him any questions. He told me I look well and when I told him my right hip is very painful, day and night, he recommended an MRI. I also told him about the right flank but he said only hip MRI because he is not worried about my right side flank and also scans show many things that create unnecessary anxiety. I will let you know once I get the MRI. I note to myself, next time I will go with my PJ, I won't comb my hair and not shower so I won't look polished :)

    Hugs to you all and thank you for thinking of me. It is now a good place to be. I saw so many sick young people today :(

    Happy dance time! Just found out that later next month I can schedule my vaccine appointment. Hubby can schedule his sooner than me.

    Yeah. Our governor said that the CDC’s tiered approach is good but lead to too much confusion in many states.

    so far in my cancer “journey” (I kind of hate that word, but I haven’t come up with a better one yet) the scariest words have been “we may want to send you in for a brain MRI.” Which my MO just said yesterday. Right now we’re just trying to figure out some odd symptoms I have been having and brain metsare a low probability, but hot damn the thought is terrifying.

    Melbo,

    I would be scared too. Hang on to the "low probability" and stay positive. I will be thinking of you.

    In your pocket for the brain MRI, Melbo. I had some weird symptoms too (pulsatile tinnitus), but the brain/ear MRI revealed it wasn't mets but only a congenital extra blood vessel abutting my internal auditory canal. May your MRI reveal something similarly innocuous.

    Melbo - In your pocket as well for the scan! That is a scary phrase to hear, indeed.

    Sorry for not having been on much lately but I have been very busy hunting down an appointment for my hubby to get his first dose of the vaccine. Been searching at least 3-4 times a day to get one scheduled. Finally got one yesterday for next week! I’m eligible on the 22nd to sign up for an appointment.

    Mommy, so glad hubby will be getting his shot! I got my first one last week, second on the 22nd (Pfizer).
