Guest guest Posted September 24, 2001 Report Share Posted September 24, 2001 Dear Jean Good news about your numbers - keep up the good work. Sorry to hear about your cat. I'm glad you were there to find her and she didn't just 'disappear'. Take Care Caroline JeanC wrote: > in this awful month.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2004 Report Share Posted January 14, 2004 Just wanted to let all know that Roy's last CT scan shows the liver tumors are shrinking.! Yea! He also has less tenderness in his abdomen with the CC. He has been doing sessions with a hypnosis therapist (who just happens to be his Mom)to reduce side effects of chemo. He's been on Oxal/xeloda for 8 weeks now and has had no diahrea, no problem with cold drinks, no sensitivity to cold. He did suffer a bit with the hand and foot syndrome till the therapist, during a session, told him to stop that. Now his feet peel, but no sensitivity. Two days after the IV he does crash with the fatigue but within a day or two he perks right back up. Bev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
