Iβm glad the GI doc caught what others missed. Hereβs hoping that you will be feeling better soon. Sending positive thoughts for the rest of the weekβs appointments.Well, the CT scan went okay. I was told the same thing. We can't find anything to tell us what the pain is from.
I went to my GI Doctor today. She went over many ideas, gave me a physical and looked at my CT scan. She was amazed that it showed a huge amount of back up and gas. She pointed out all of what was there. So, we are going to start a mini cleanse and see if that helps. She was surprised that none of those involved in my CT didn't get catch that. She said it could be a source of my pain.
I see the radiologist tomorrow to get my tattoos and get set up with a schedule. Thursday, I talk to my Palliative care doc. Then Friday I go in for a very overdue eye appointment.
I hope the cleanse gets rid of your pain. The people that did the CT should have easily picked up on the back up.Well, the CT scan went okay. I was told the same thing. We can't find anything to tell us what the pain is from.

They call them tattoos because they basically stay around. It helps them get the machine lined up faster during radiation.
This is great news. We love you Sassy. Keep us posted!I sure hope so. I'll take the fatigue if I can leave behind the pain.

Thank you. Yes it will be a pretty quiet weekendIβm glad the GI doc caught what others missed. Hereβs hoping that you will be feeling better soon. Sending positive thoughts for the rest of the weekβs appointments.
Ugh me too. I've lost more weight because of the pain and struggling to feel hungry..I hope the cleanse gets rid of your pain. The people that did the CT should have easily picked up on the back up.
The tattoos are still there from my breast cancer, so they had to take pictures, so they don't line it up with the wrong set of tattoos.I thought it might be something like that. Whatever helps!
Thank you.This is great news. We love you Sassy. Keep us posted!
lmao.. You are a troublemaker.I'll take 'Words Sassy Told Me During Anal' for $1,000, Alex
Fantastic, you keep kicking cancerβs ass. You are in my prayers every day.Today I met with the Radiologist. He went over my CT and said the main reason he wanted it was just to double check that the cancer hadn't spread, and it hasn't. We went back to the CT Machine and got situated with where and how I will lay in the machines, then they gave me the tattoos. They were able to use one of them from my breast cancer as a top marker.
I will officially start June 10th. Every weekday for 6 weeks.
Most of the side effects with start showing up around 2 weeks in. This round of the chemo will be in pill form. 5 pills a day every time I do radiation. I will have next week to rest and then back to fighting.

You got this Sassy.. Good news that it hasn't spread.. Sounds like you need to rent a Air B and B for a bit to save on gas and travel..Today I met with the Radiologist.

It's crazy to think I've been doing this for a year though. But. If I have any chance at all, I'll keep fighting.As exhausting as this is you are doing it! Youβre getting through it.
Rest well, you have more fight in you than you think.
My brother rented an air bnb for next weekend and he's taking me over the mountains for a weekend get away. I'm really looking forward to that. That'll be the weekend before I start radiation. So it will be even more needed and wanted.You got this Sassy.. Good news that it hasn't spread.. Sounds like you need to rent a Air B and B for a bit to save on gas and travel..

Plus renting an air bnb for 6 weeks would definitely be more than I can afford. I wouldn't want to be away from my family that long.It's crazy to think I've been doing this for a year though. But. If I have any chance at all, I'll keep fighting.

Yes. He really is. I'm so glad he came into my life. I was an only child until my 30s. He found me and it turns out he was my missing piece.What an awesome brother. You certainly deserve it.
Thank you. It's good to see you.Yes I am smiling for you.
Glad they found what was causing your pain kiddo. Congrats on your daughter's wedding!! Enjoy your rest.Well after that busy week. I am finally relaxing on the couch.
I went to the GI nurse this week and she did a physical exam and shows me all of my CT scan. She was able to tell me what she thought the problem was. She sent me home with some stuff to try and I am already feeling less pain. I haven't needed any pain meds this weekend. I am feeling so much better.
All these Dr's and she is the one to figure it out when you can see plain as day on the CT scan. So, it was missed by everyone. I sent her a message already and told her I loved her
Next day I went to my Radiologist and got my tattoos. I am all marked up and ready to go.
Had my eye exam on Friday. I'm blind.
This weekend we went to get my husband and son suits for my daughters wedding in a few months. Such handsome men.
I'm just in awe over how much less the pain is. Such a relief.
So glad that what the GI nurse told you worked, Must be a great relief.Well after that busy week. I am finally relaxing on the couch.
