Tuesday's report
Mondays treatmenr went fine. EXCEPT Kaiser did
not give me all the medicine I needed. Dr Rubins office got the medicine from another oncologist. The office worked out all the details with Kaiser. As of today-no worries.
I talked with Dr Rubin about how smooth everything is going. At the end of these 5 days I will have a series of test performned by Kaiser. That will tell us if this type of treatment is working.
On another note. I had my friend, MIchelle research clinical tries avaiable for my type of canter. She found one that looked prommising in Santa Montica. Dr Rubin got more information of the program and how it works. He says it looks really good and asked me if I wanted him to contact the doctor directly. YES! I said. I would go for the evualation appointment and that did not mean I would have to do it. This is only research.
I am also looking into a natural way with out chemo.
All of this is alot to read, digest, think about and choose what is best for me...doing it my way!
Late last night around 2am I got really really sick. I dont know if it was the food or the chemo. Barry did not get sick. But this AM I was feeling OK. Tonight will be the test.
Barry had to leave to attend some important meeting and I was lucky to get my friend Georgianne to come pick me up and fill in for him.
We also went shopping for a wig and we were able to find one. I am relieved to know I have hair back up.
My CA125 went from 170 to 35 wich is great. That only tells me that the tumors arent growing, that does not mean the cancer is not growing.
I am told I will always have cancer, I will always have to watch it and manager it.

ALSO, put my condo up for sale , this weekend will be open house. This company brought in a "stager" monday to review and wensday she will move things around. YIKES! it is going so fast. The housing market is falling and this is the time to get out.Love Suzanne
