Back to cancer center - but not for progression!
Hello everyone!
Just wanted to post a quick update. My medical oncologist has a special interest in how our bones do with cancer and aging. We have been watching my hips, femoral neck density, etc. for several years. Just enough slippage in the age-matched percentage at last scan that she thought it was time for me to try Zometa again (it has been many years since I had any of that). My insurance will cover two injections per year, so I started yesterday. Was actually nice to see a couple of my nurses from the past and for them to see me doing well. Felt well today. Did all kinds of things, including a trip to my local farmer's market in the cool drizzle. Thought I might ache a little with this weather change, but not so far. |

Hi Steph,
Glad to hear from you. Send us some rain down south, please. We are so dry, is scary. Love, Adriana |

Hi -
No trip to France this year, Sarah. Maybe 2015, we hope. Adriana - it is dry here again. No rain for the next week on the radar. Our back yard grass dried up in early July - and it is usually mid-August before it looks like that! I even put a little water on it ... Our berries have been wonderful this year - from the early strawberries to the raspberries that I am still picking a few every other day. Still OK on my Zometa. No S/E that I can tell. |

Steph I get Zometa once a year and see my old chemo nurse's and and the lady who served the hot dinners who remembered I felt queasy at hot food and always only brought me biscuits and tea:)
We've just had a mini heatwave here in Ireland at 27c and no rain for a week but its back to normal 21c today and some light showers which suits me fine!:) |
