How are you feeling Sherry?
-
Omaz feeling pretty good today but cannot wear a bra. I am going to work tomorrow and was trying to figure out what I can wear that will not be noticeable. I was getting cabin fever so DH took me to the movies this afternoon after I tood a nap first. Wonder how I will make it tomorrow. But I have my post op visit with my Dr. in the afternoon so I can catch a nap on the way there while DH drives.
-
Good luck tomorrow!

tamcathtech~ I think I found the name of the crap I've got - Trigeminal Neuralgia. I found it on the Mayo Clinic site, and it is to a tee in a nut shell exactly what I've been experiencing.
The new doctor didn't go into names of ailments with me, but i will confirm with her in two weeks. She has however already started me on the meds they talk about in the article.
Had a long episode today, 8 am to noon....not as intense as the last one, but it hurt well enough. I slept for two hours after that, then had dull pain for the evening. Seems like a very vague thing when it comes to triggers, but chemo side effect is surely discussed all over the net.
Learning how to hang in there, will need to come up with new jokes about this newest thing to get some laughter going.

Sherry - What a pocket party going on here. Can you hear us? We are trying to stay quiet but you know how rowdy we can get. Hoping for B9 results.

Gina - We have lots of hotels in the area. We are about 4 1/2 hours from San Antonio. Not a bad trip. I take IH37 south to Three Rivers and then get on 281 until you get to McAllen. We are 12 miles east of McAllen. Just let me know. We would love to have you.
