    Yippee! I got a few texts back from Patty this morning:

    "Hey sorry. Been sick. Am still alive!!! How r u ?"

    I asked her to please come by when she can visit; we all miss her. 

    "Thanks. I am still at oncologists office. Been here since 9 for chemo. Will come visit soon. I miss everyone."

    I’m new to this thread but have been lurking for a while. Geeze I was getting worried about Patty and haven’t ever corresponded with her in the boards lol! Glad to see all is good Patty!

    She’ll probably read this one day soon and say “who the hell is Egads007?!?”

    Happy

    Another update:

    Patty had a long day at the oncologist's, 9 to mid-afternoon. She got chemo: Herceptin, perjeta, taxol, exgeva, and nausea meds and fluids to prevent dehydration. She tested positive for UTI, with all those UTI symptoms, plus nausea, lots of diarrhea, and some vomiting. 

    Her labs are staying steady, not better, not worse. Will wait and get 4 more weeks of taxol in before scanning again.

    Hi ladies. Just updating. Sorry I've been out - miserable. Anyway started anitibiotics monday for uti. Spent all afternoon today in mo office in recliner. Getting iv phenergan , a steroid, fluids and antibiotics but wasn't better at closing time so here I am back in hospital. Dr did direct admit so I don't have to wait in er for like 8 hours. Because of the cancer in the liver they don't want me to take Tylenol or Motrin but they gave me some at mo to bring fever down. the lowest we got it was 102.2. Spiking 104. wHICH IS not unusual I get a temp for it to go high since not taking anything to bring it down.

    Anyway just saying hi and thanks

    Hootie hoo. Hugs all
