Xeloda and Tykerb along with/Dex
My schedule is upside down and I'm no longer sure what to do to find something to work. Any advice would be great.
Im taking steriods four times a day and suppose to take them six hours apart. On top of taking Xeloda twice a day 10 12 hours apart, than Tykerb whenever. I talked to the ONC and she said I could put the time closer together so I get sleep, but when I do that I'm only getting a few hours of sleep a night.
Im taking amoxicillen just because on top of all of this I have an ear infection, and today Im feeling like my throat is ready to explode it just feels swollen.
They told me they wouldn't know if the DEX is helping push fluid away from the brain tumor so the other two drugs will help me or not for another month if that. I have to admit I'm worried I never even heard of it. I'm just lost and can't even think of what to do .... or if I'm diong anything worth it.
