Re: Ugh Brain Mets!

Yea! One down!

Glad to hear it went well. You will notice some fatigue, even with the crazy-making Dex. ( my therapist said the steroid-mania is like the mania in Bipolar Disorder. You may do things like compulsive spending, committing to projects that you can't complete, or compulsively scrubbing the fridge , and then not remember. Wild stuff!)

Allow yourself to rest when you need to.....especially with multiple treatments. Don't push too hard.....There will be plenty of time for that later.

Keep on keeping on....we will keep sending good energy and prayers your way!!
