  8. Thanks everyone for your input....it really helps. My husband is getting a transfusion tomorrow since his blood count is so low---no wonder he was feeling so bad.
  9. My husband fairly new to chemo. He had a couple of good days but other than that, he has joint aches, edema, and so forth. He is working from our home so he does handle it well but I thought since this was an "off" week from chemo, he would feel much better. Is this the norm?
  10. Hip Hip Horray!!! Such great news.....
  11. My husband's onc said alway call over 100.5.
  12. I am sorry to read about your mom. My husband had extensive blood clots and is very prone to edema. In fact, he is going through it again now. His doctor has recommended all of the above---except the Gatorade which I am going to try now.

  18. Tess, My husband got a dose a Gemzar yesterday and is feeling a bit more tired today. ...... Keep the faith!
  19. After a two month leave from work, I just started back full time and my husband is working from home part time . Since, I also have a daughter and an 80 year old mom who needs some assistance, I hired a neighbor who helps with groceries, laundry, cooking, errands, and some caregiving. She helps about two to three hours a day and so far, it has worked out well .
  20. Could anyune who used Iressa, please comment as to at what point it was tried...what you think about it....did your oncologist prescribe or did you seek it, etc...? Any information would be greatly appreciated....
  21. My husband is just had two rounds of chemo and so far, so good...did anyone get a second opinion while things were going ok? How do you know if the chemo drug selection is the best option? Is it just based on success and when a drug fails, you try another one?
  22. HI! I am glad I found this site. My husband went to the hospital with DVT's only to find out it was NSCLS. He had a 30% reduction with the first PET results....and hopefully the chemo will continue to work. Has anyone had continued reduction with chemo on second and third rounds?
