The first thing this morning I took my blood sugar, 299 so I had to take 10 units of insulin before I did anything else. Second thing I did was to take the thing that makes my BS goes wild, Dexamethasone two tabs. I then went down and had some breakfast that will also make my BS elevate. Now off to the Infusion center for my appointment with the Port Room to have my port re-stuck. Then in to see Sue the Nurse Practiconer for Dr. Adami. She was great and answered all my questions as to what medicines did what to me and what the side effects of all of them where. I also told her about Protocel and she said it ok to use after the Chemo but not during. She also said that it would not kill the Sarcome's because it is not an antirobic cell.
Next I went into the Chemo area and had a few more poisons put in my bod. First: Gemzar 1625 mg. That's the stuff I just had that gave me all the problems with my stomach. Next was Angemet, 200mg that's for anti-nausea medication, then Benadeye 25 mg, and Zantac 50mg. to help prevent reaction to the Taxotere that I received next. Now I'm home and get to apply the three gels that I have so the Radiation Recall doesn't start all over again.
That's my day so far, I've had a ham and roast beef sandwich and after this I'm going to lay down for a nap. Let's just hope that nothing reacts with anything. More Later

Hi Tom,
ReplyDeleteJust wanted you to know that you, Sharon and family have been in my thoughts and prayers since I found out about this blog from Tom Whitney. Keep fighting the good fight and I'll see you at the reunion if not before.
