Chemo
Appointment 11:40
AM
I just got my IVs started I expect get out of here about seven o'clock
tonight I slept four hours last night and I'm still taking steroids and I'm a
little wound up. They are giving me more steroids in the IV. Great!
I fnally talked to DR Bhandri- 3:30 PM. He is
probably
going to stop the Chemo after the next treatment. The medical
community has a conference at Ohio State Medical Center next week they are redoing
the guide lines on how much chemo is necessary. This is a research
hospital (the same hospital which is treating Robin) The
concept or question, my question is are four treat all that are needed?
He thinks this might be so. I had a red flag go up - is it enough? I
know that six the treatments - maybe to dangerous for my body.
But so is the return of cancer.
Dr Bhandri - is an incrediable Dr. he knows everything, he is so
intellengent
you can understand what he knows and what he is saying. He is
on top of the constant changes that are happening daily in cancer, treatments
that allow people to live a long healthy life. He is attending a
conference on the newest proceedures on chemo for breast cancer. But this is my body and my goal is no more cancer!
He is going to review my case at this conference also the family
cancer history with the genetics family at Ohio State next week to
determine what is the best route to take.
8:30 PM
I am finished with my chemo for today - it has been a very long
day.
