I could use a few good thoughts
I've been having a lot of pain in my back (near the shoulder blade) all through my armpit and into my left (good breast). I've been told to hold off on going to the doc to wait and see if it goes away (they say, give it two weeks). Anyway, went to my pc yesterday and he said it's probalbly pleurisy (sp?). Have to get a chest xray and scan tomorrow at 11:00. Also saw my onc yesterday for my three month checkup, I swear if that man ever gave me a bit of encouragement, I think I'd pass out. Asked him after the blood and exam,"well, how am I doing"? Always the same answer, "well, Sue, we can never say for sure" Damn, would it kill him to just give me something to cling to? I'm not real happy right now, I started prednisone yesterday, three pills then three this moring, they are giving me a nasty headache and a weird feeling, so I popped a Xanax, kinda scary, don't wont to accidentely overdose myself on anything.
I running out of thoughts but would just like to ask for prayer. I logged in today and saw my birthday buddy's post (Tricia K) and felt so bad. I'm sure we will all be keeping her in our prayers. God's sure gonna get an earful.
Thanks for listening, love you all.
