Chemotherapy Update

                                                                                      

Update. I have had a rough few weeks. The Doctor had to change one of my chemo drugs. He said it was a very bad drug and that most people don't get past 2 doses. I had 3. It started causing feet and leg pain and numbness and tingling in my feet legs and left hand. He said if they didn't change it I could lose loss of my feet, legs and hands and end up in a wheelchair. I've been having severe fatigue and shortness of breath ( I haven't been able to do ANYTHING) so yesterday when I went to have bloodwork and see the doctor they did some testing and decided to send me to the hospital for a CT scan after my chemo treatment. Well, they found that I have a bloodclot in my lung! The Oncologist office called me at the Radiology dept., and said they were calling in a prescription for a blood thinner that I have to take for 2 weeks. If it's not one thing it's another! The new chemo drug has to be taken 2 weeks in a row with one week off so I have 2 sets of 2 left. I'll be so happy when it's done!
