CHEMO UPDATE......

Well, I wasn't able to have chemo Thursday. After taking my first new treatment on May 31, nausea has persisted.



Doc is trying everything.......Zofran, compazine, ativan, nexium and others.  She also prescribed a nausea patch.


Doc really wants to get me back on my treatments. The last one I had was May 31. And it was not a full dose because we were trying the new TDM1 KADCYLA for the first time. So the next one we do will be a stronger dose. Can't really do anything till nausea is gone cause a stronger dose will for sure cause more nausea. It's a mess.

Doc is also concerned about my gall bladder so she sent me for an ultrasound yesterday to rule it out before starting chemo again.

I am happy to report that my legs , arms and muscles are much better. Also no headaches. Just waiting for brain scan next month.

I hope all of you are doing good. I think of you often and wished I felt better so I could talk on the phone more.

Let me know how you are. I can still send prayers and hugs. Love and miss you all! Jackie

Ps. No hair still.   :(

I sure hope it's not perm from radiation!
