Re: Skin Mets
Hi Susan W....I am also hoping for s B9 dx. I am not supposed to have any needles cuts scratches or anything on the arm that was biopsied. The doctor knew this , but said he had to do it anyway.Sure enough last night it became infected. A 3" swath surrounding the wound of redness and heat. I took my temp, it was normal. I had an emergency dose of keflex on hand, so I took two 500mg tabs. Being a lymphodemiac its good to keep antibiotics in case of an emergency. I have an appointment today I must keep, and a meeting tomorrow I can't cancel. My son wants me to stop everything and go to the er or a doctor. But I feel I can put it off til thursday and go back to the derm. I think the antibiotics will hold back the infection. Tomorrow I will try to call my oncologist, although I will be 2 hours out of the city. I see you are osteoporotic. I had osteo, but was able to reverse it to osteopenia with diet, citrical plus, and strontium and lots of exercise. (mostly walking). Biophosphates are scary.Forteo seems like a good alternative.Hoping it works for you. Love dotty
