blah blah blah blah
Just checking in....blah blah blah. Not much going on here. Getting up every morning & moving on. Latest surgery is done & over - wahoo. Bad news is that the doc is expanding my chemo. Here I thought I was almost done and whamo! He has decided it is in my best interests (and survival) to continue with 2 more chemos after my next one.
Rats.
We started out with 8 planned, then shortened it to 6 and now back to 8. Rats & Double Rats
At least the surgery is done. Will have to do the other mastectomy in the next year, but I think I'll wait until I have hair!
Most of my eyelashes are now gone & my eyebrows are virtually nonexistant. I know they are a pain to pluck, but this is a bit extreme. I'll go for the plucking eyebrows over chemo any day.
The new chemo is ok. I don't get so sick or nauseous, but the pain gets a bit bad.
I have been living with pain 24/7 since last September - and am really looking forward to some relief. Pain pills work, but only for a short time, then you have to keep poppin 'em. I don't like that. I haven't been able to go to a chiropractor - AHA!! I got it! I need to go for a massage.
That will help with the back. Oh yeah. I deserve it. mmmmmm oh yeah.
Well, I am thinking about the family. Hope all is well. We are all fine & dandy here in CA.
I can get out of bed & go to work - I am doing good! Thanks for letting me rant.
Rant over.
Later gators.
