Terre, I hope they find the cause and solution to your problem. What a misery! I have Linda's problem, and that's bad too; but there are ways of coping. At chemo today I told my nurse coordinator of a few things going on, one of which is pain in my upper belly when I bend over. She asked if it felt like bloating. Nope. Feels hard. She said what I suspected. "You're full of sh*t." lol So, I've added hot prune juice to my arsenal.
I had a rough week last week, so I got behind. Almost caught up now, though.
Had a weird thing happen last night. Over night a discoloration appeared on my finger, and it got darker through the day. It's not raised, doesn't hurt, and doesn't wash off. It got the nurse coordinator's attention too. I guess I'm going to have to get another appointment with the dermatologist. If it ain't one thing it is another. Watchagonnado?!?!?

There was no brown spot last night. This morning it was discolored. Now it looks like brown wood stain. Crazy!!!
I need to finish and put Dusty and Soebe and especially ME to bed. I got the down out for tonight. Nice.
