[Scan Time - UPDATE results]

Paulette,

Everything crossed for great scan results. My scanxiety has gotten a tiny bit better, but my doc also prescribed an anti-anxiety med for these times. Can you call the doc's nurse and get the results? I asked me doc and she just has her nurse call me. Good luck!

Darien,

Welcome. Sorry you have the need to be here, but glad you found this site. This place was a life saver for me.

[Need to VENT....anyone listening????]

Hi Ann,

What did his Doc say? It doesn't sound like a good idea for him not to get rehab for his new knee. He needs phys. therapy does not he? A nurse saying "oh he's walking pretty good", doesn't sound like a sound medical opinion to me. I'd call his doc and raise He**! That just doesn't make any sense!

[JohnMillerHR!! needs advice and is new!]

Hi John,

Talk to your ONC. There are many chemo drugs out there or maybe they can give you something to help with the symptoms. I know I had about six differant pills just to help control the bad side effects. So please talk to your doc first. We can always walk the path less traveled if it gets to rough!

[Update on Melanie's surgery]

Thank you so much for letting us know! I've been worrying about the little woman all day!!! YIPPPEEEE!!!

Dana

[Am I wimping out ?]

Barbara,

I to have asked myself what will I do if my cancer comes back? I can't go through chemo treatment like I did the first time, horribly sick, tired, felt awful, stuff almost killed me. But faced with the decision I think I would try another chemo and if it gets to bad, we can always walk the other path. Good Luck to you! Prayers on the way!

((hugs))

Hi Melanie,

I forgot about the white tights! Hated those things! You have a lot going for and a lot of prayers coming your way. It's a big surgery and big fears go along with it. You really will do great! Keep posting! We're here!

Dana

A job! Way to go!

[Epidurals...how painful?]

Melanie,

You should be at least a little freaked out or something would be really, really wrong with your mind! It's okay just keep coming here and letting it out. You're doing great!

Dana

[Epidurals...how painful?]

Melanie,

I woke up with the epidural already in place. Once it's in place I didn't feel a thing at all! Nothing! Same thing with the cath, already in place when I woke up. I'm glad your asking questions! Keep up the good work!
