Well, I have been really bad at posting I guess. Time just gets away from me! Week 5 of the treatments just ended, with today starting the last 4 days as I finish next Wednesday with this part of it all. Today started my last 4 days of chemo, so this is a repeat of the first 4 days. I did end up with a couple of the side effects from the radiation, one just being really tired, and the other having to do with bodily functions. I am making it through those, especially the unpleasant one, with out too many issues. From what the Radiation Doc said, I will probably get worse this next week, until the Monday after this part is done. Nothing I can’t handle, so nothing to worry about 🙂
From what both docs have said so far, is that after this is done, it will be approximately 4 weeks before the surgery will be performed. I will find out more when I speak to the surgeon, but ti looks like right around Thanksgiving time frame. I am going to try and talk him into the week after so I don’t miss the meal. If it happens before Thanksgiving, I wouldn’t be able to eat either that one or xmas dinner, and I am not going to give up 2 holiday meals if I can help it lol.
All in all things are still looking up with everything considered. I do know that I have to beat this thing so next year I can get up to Rochester for a garbage plate, and good wings 🙂
