Hi gang, I'm on my way to my first CT since beginning Tykerb/Xeloda. Wasn't nervous til this morning-which is an improvement, but now I'm nervous. I see the doctor on Tuesday.

BTW, does coffee REALLY cause THAT much of a problem before an IV only contract CT? Because I really want a latte.

love to all of you-my we are a brave lot aren't we?

Hi Joy,
I will be thinking of you today as you head off to your scan. And, just because you are so cool, I will drink TWO lattes, one for you and one for me!!! (After all, I live near Seattle and everyone knows how we feel about our coffee!!!) xox

Dear Joy,
We have all been there - when we nervously wait for the dr. to give us the results of our latest test. I will be focusing my positive energy your
way...please continue to be positive and wear that beautiful smile of yours.

Special Blessing being sent also!
Hugs,
jean

Joy-

four hours is what I was told - I had a 2 hour drive, so my treat at completion was the starbucks in the hospital. I'll be thinking of you...

Kind regards

Hey Joy!
I thought a latte was part of treatment and scans! It's not?????

I hope that ol scan shows that you're on the mend and doing GREAT!

I am sending miracle vibes to the scan fairies... huh? LOL

Wouldn't it be great if they could invent a vanilla latte flavored barium?

Yes Joy, we are some tough biatches as my son says. We have to be...I love that new song out now called "Tough" by Craig Morgan..it pretty much describes us. We are still expected to do everything we ever did, fight cancer and put a smile on our face while doing it...that's pretty tough if I say so. Here's sending a prayer your way..scan time is hell time for me, I start getting nervous about a week before they are due...sherryg
