Joy out of procedure
I'm here at the hospital waiting for her to come back. The Doctor said she had about three ulcers in her intestine, which he said is the best case scenario. So they will start her on IV Nexium, get her stabilized and maybe someday she can get out of here. But she is doing well after the procedure, they had to use general anaesthesia.
Marie, thanks again for you input. Ixempra has got to be the toughest drug she has ever been on. She has been fighting this for 8 years and this is the worst it has ever been and she did 18 months on Taxotere-Xeloda! I have never seen a drug beat someone up so quickly. I really don't want her to have anymore, but her onc hasn't offered up any alternatives either. So I am of course worried and onto more research. As always any suggestions are more than welcome! Thanks for listening! Jennifer
