I had a follow up appt with Dr. Shah on Wednesday, and it went well. She felt my bumps, and she thought they felt smaller, which I agreed. I do have numbness in my fingertips now, which was a known side effect, my finger tips feel like they're a bit frost bitten. I asked her about my killer heartburn that I had while on the prednisone, and she gave me a script for prevacid. Thank you, Jeebus. I felt like I had a hole in my throat, which is better now since I'm not taking drugs, but I'll have it for next time. I just can't stay away from carbs and tomato sauce anymore, that is worse than the heart burn! ;)
So, next chemo date is Wed., October 26, and the one after is Wed., November 16. If anyone would like to come and sit with me while I get chemo'd up, let me know! I love visitors :). Ryan will be going with me for all my visits, but he may have to leave early to pick up the boy from the bus, if we don't have anything arranged, so I could use a ride home, if anything, from my homies. And hey, Whole Foods and Suburpia are just down the street... Lots of good places to eat afterwards :)
Smaller is awesome! Way to beat up that lymphoma girlfriend!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could come sit with you! Cause I totally would.
