You guys are so sweet! I appreciate all your advice and concern more than you probably realize!
Vicki and Flori - Checked with onc...she definitely doesn't want my stomach to have ANY food in there! Sooooo...she prescribed Zofran.
Nancy - who ISN'T a Steisand fan, at some level? What a gift that voice is!
Paula - sit during the school day? Hahahaha! Elementary teachers almost
never sit. But, believe me, once I'm home...my recliner is my best friend!
My echo (last Friday) was excellent...so any "windedness" must be from the weight I've gained!
And, my friend, you can read all about this ridiculous brain met journey on the thread "Brain Mets *&%$*" back in July. I'd post it here, but I can't get the link to work!
Sandra - I stash Immodium like squirrels stash nuts!
Brenda - I'm reeeeaaaaaly hoping that once I get all the timing correct...my experience with Herceptin and Tykerb will be like yours.
Penny - Thank you, Jesus indeed!!
Saw the Gamma Rad Onc yesterday. He's optimistic that they were able to zap and kill all the active disease, AND, he doesn't think the BC had a chance to spread to the lining of my brain (lepto meningeal disease) so...that was a relief, for now anyway.
Off to school! I haven't been this excited to go to work in years!! God is Good!
Hugs all around!
Please keep praying that the rad onc is right, and that no new lesions pop up between now and the November MRI.
