I was worried for the wrong reason
I phoned my onc this morning I have been unsteady on my feet, a bit like finding sea legs and all I wanted to do was sleep, I was very pale, I figured that the tumour pressing on my spine must have been getting bigger and I was going to end up in a wheel chair, turns out I was dehydrated and my blood pressure was real real low. Well I spent the entire day at the hospital with my very hubby and left sucking on an electrolyte ice block. I was so worried I re started my steroid this morning because I feared a oedema may have come about after my fall after the MRI, it did loosen my neck up so it is possible I may have been right. The best thing was that the ER was in touch with my onc at all times, and I think what triggered the diagnosis was that he himself was hospitalised for dehydration not so long back and it was still fresh in his memories, so I got to go home with orders to rest up, I took that opportunity to go to our local Sizzler Bar before I start chemo on Tuesday. Then on turn on here and learn that Dana Reeves past away. it blew me away, such a wonderful women and cut down so young, it really makes me appreciate what life I have had given back to me since 98.
Love & Hugs Lyn
