Cancer

[Guest guest]

Dede,

Fast and furious, I am being testing more than even I thought could

happen. They are very thorough. My doctor really likes me. He was

so sorry to see me in this state, and before I left he gave me a

great big long hug.

Lynda,

I was shocked to hear your bones are involved too! . . . This must have been gradually coming on for some time.

But relieved to hear you have a doctor who really cares!

That means so much!

Rogene,

I was very shocked to know that it was in my bones.

My doctor is a wonderful guy. After all the questions and

everything, I said to him: BTW, how dare you leave town in the middle

of my crisis. He broke up laughing. I told him Debbie (my son's GF,

the doctor), said, " Yes, how dare he have a life. " That cracked him

up also. Of course, he knew I was joking, as he has known me for 18

years. It sorta took the tenseness out of the situation, at least

for a few minutes. We have always had such a good relationship, I

just had to go back there to be treated.

If I can get the pleural effusion stopped, I can resume hyperbaric

treatment for my RSD. He supported that goal for me. He knows I am

in pain. He gave me morphine pills, as he knows I will have more

pain. When it is in your bones, it can get very painful.

Lynda,

Any chance he could find a study where they are using HBOT on cancer? . . . Then you could get your treatments free.

Lynda ~

I am so glad you have a doctor with a heart

and knows how to listen, and he is familiar with

you already. This will be a big part of your

healing. God Bless YOU ! !

Lynda:

I am so sorry to hear about this. I hope and pray that things will be OK with you and am glad that you have confidence in the doctors who are caring for you...

The pain. I don't know how in the world can people sort out these pain issues when there is so much pain in so many places... I don't feel that it is appropriate for me to address this on this post, but question this in a separate post...

Meanwhile, know that you are never far from our minds and we want the very best for you... You sure don't deserve to have this to deal with...

I thought that pain was the RSD that had jumped, but it may have been

the bone cancer.

I do have real pain in my left foot from the RSD.

I am worried, believe me. I just wanted to make sure you're comfortable with them. I've never found any doctor that I feel comfortable with, and it always seemed like it would be soothing to have someone I trusted as a health care provider.It's so nice that he hugged you. As long as you're both in this as a team, that seems like it would be a comfort. (not having to second guess the doctor)We'll all be your team too. If you need research on anything but are too tired to scour the Internet, put us on it and we can all do searches on it and send you some links. Re: cancer

Rogene,

Would not be free if you had to travel to get to the study and pay

for housing and food while there.

HBOT is usually used in conjunction with radiation treatments. I am

not doing those.

B,

Yes, this is a very nice guy. He knows the silicone made me ill and

he has had other patients who had problems with implants. So he

admits that at least some people have problems. He is open-minded.

The doctor is willing to go by my wishes, at least to a point. He

gave me the choices for chemo and we discussed side-effects. We

ruled out any that cause peripheral neuropathy because I already have

a bit of that.

This doctor is unusual, in that he listens, he cares, and he has a heart.

Thanks, Dede. I knew I had to be treated in Boulder. The traveling

gets to me, but I have trust and confidence in my doctor.

Darling Lynda:

We have just come home from Dracula's Castle, and I thought that I would send you a note. When my friend had cancer, we made sure that she ate lots of protein. I just cannot remember why this was so important, but it worked.

Honey, you have too much on your plate at the moment, and we hope that you will get some support. We will all be here for you each day. It is sad that your bones have become involved, but this too will get better, and we hope that your doctor makes sure that you do not suffer from pain. He sounds very nice.

Take care, brave lady....sending love always...Lea and

Re: cancer

Ok, test results are in, so now I have to do more tests. I have to have a test on my heart to be sure it is ok to give me the first agent, which is doxil. It can have an impact on the heart, so you have to know that your heart is ok. I have to do an MRI on my remaining breast to be sure that it is not the primary site for the cancer. I have to have the fluid removed from my pleural lining of the lung again. And I have to have a port put in for the treatment. Probably all this week. I cannot drive home after they put in the port.The scan was pretty thorough. Cancer in my lung is pretty small, cancer lesion on my liver is quite small, but I have cancer in my bones. So it was not good news. According to the oncologist, I have a good chance of a pretty long recovery because I have survived 18 years since the first cancer, because my cancer is Estrogen-positive (has receptors for Estrogen) and because of other factors. So, treatable, not cureable. Lifetime treatment.Meanwhile, I am going to be studying up on the alternatives. I have found the alternatives are not as reliable if it is in your bones, according to all I can find.LyndaAt 05:11 PM 1/22/2008, you wrote:>Wow Lynda - thank you for sharing.>>Love, Lynn>>> >> >> > CANCER> >> > by Lynda Roth> >> >> > Of all the words I've ever heard> > And all the horrors I have faced> > The one that stopped me in my tracks> > Is the one I most recently faced.> >> > Cancer!

Hi Lea,

Tomorrow morning I check into the hospital at 7:30 A.M. to have a

port put in. Don't know if it is a twilight or a general

anesthesia. Probably twilight.

Then I will go to the other hospital to have the pleural cavity

drained again.

I will stay at my friend's house overnight tonight and tomorrow

night. I cannot drive.

Monday they will do the other two tests.

Wed, I will see the doc again.

Then they will schedule chemo.

Lynda,

We'll be keeping you in our prayers!

Lynn,

I am definitely losing weight, weigh less than I have in 15

years. Trouble eating, no appetite and nausea. Most things just do

not appeal to me at all.

I am working on the wig thing. Who knows, maybe it won't fall

out. They tell me it will. The American Cancer Society has a

program called Look Good, Feel Better and they have wigs and wig

fittings, if you don't find one you like, you can order one pretty

cheaply. They also have turbans, scarves, hats, etc. I am not much

of a hat wearer, but now have to protect myself from the sun. I

leave mid-week next week.

Hopefully I will feel better as the nausea and constipation

leave. If the foot-hand problem do not cause much trouble and the

mouth sores go away, I will feel much better. Weakness and fatigue

will be my worst problems, hopefully.

My next treatment will be after I get back. I think they have it set

up for less than 4 weeks, but that is not going to happen. It may be

4 1/2 weeks by the time I get back.
