Calling all TNs

Carolyn- If that's the case, I can have it injected everywhere but my eyelids :-). They have been going into back of my arm, but tomorrow I am going to suggest the belly, or butt, or thigh........ Gotta laugh so we don't cry :-)

You got it cocker spaniel! Had AC for. 1ST TIME YESTERDAY /NEULASTA TODAY-can say I expected to feel crappy-took claritin this morning-took nausea mess as directed.Still al. Nauseated and aching. Took vicodin.Helps

The steroids for today's treatment have me wired! Should be cleaning closets, but to lazy to do that.....

Kathrynn......my skin mets look like a bumpy red rash or this time a few little red bumps.  The first time I had them they looked a lot like shingles.  If I can get my husband to send me the pic I will post one of the first rash I had.  As long as it won't offend anyone.

Inmate - certainly won't offend me.  You rock girl.   

Kathrynn........Here's a pic of my skin mets that i had removed in April.  The pen marks represent the skin that was removed.  the small cut in the middle of the mets is where I had my biopsy.   The other scars, well that's history. 

Inmate - they do look so much like shingles.  And its amazing how much skin they take.  You will always have our support.  A thoroughly courageous and brave person needs all the support and help we can give and you've got it all wrapped up with our love.  Annie

the first thing that I would do is FIND A NEW GROUP OF DOCTORS ( YES I MEANT TO YELL )

If you have any clubs or groups that you are let,one or two in that group know just a little of what is going on in your life and you will probably find that you have lots of friend willing to help. I know these things worked for me.

Hugs,cfs

Magicone,what a situation! If it's vascular,that's probably why they don't operate. Have you considered going to differrent dr,? Are you eligible for some program that can have someone come to your home and assist with care?I am a hospice nurse for an organization in ohio,we have a palliative care program for people Who Are Not Terminal,want to emphazise the not terminally ill, they have a diagnosis that makes them appropriate for palliative care for pain relief,comfort,perhaps offer assisstance with home care,assistance with medication,treatments. I am not saying you are appropriate for hospice,just throwing that out there, wish i could be there to help you. I think you get to the point where you wonder about going on,its a personal decision,rest,get pain relief, see a diifferent dr. ,that could help with your decision. You are so much in my thoughts!

MagicOne, I'm sending you a private message.

Inmate: Thank you for posting that picture.  I too would just think of it as a rash and with this heat it's no doubt that people may think it's just a heat rash.  You're amazing, you're an inspiration, you're a warrior and you WILL win xo

Oh! and forgot to say to the new great grandma Michelle - congratulations to you all.  Wonderful news.

Inmate:  You truly are a warrior!  Continue the fight!

MagicOne:  Great advice from LuvRving. Don't be shy about asking for help..people will respond in ways you've never imagined.  As far as our father is concerned, now is the time to speak to him and mend your relationship.  If he lives close I'm sure he will be more than happy to help.  My mother passed away from ovarian cancer in 1984...really affected my dad and I secretely blamed him for not being as attentive as I thought he should have been. But that is my problem...he did the best he could.  Put negative feelings aside and tell him what's goiing on.  He will run the gambit of emotions at first  but I have a feeling he will jump at the chance to help his daughter.  Best of luck.

Has anyone heard from Hope60?  I haven't seen a post since July 10...she was due to have an MRI.
