A Long Day in the New Digs


Our new "cubbies" for spa day with our own LCD tv.  Suh-weet!

I am so getting my CT scans done here next time, just so I can stare at that cool thing in the ceiling!

Wednesday was the first day to add in the new drug to replace the one that I had a reaction to: Cisplatin.  My onc. is giving it with a little different protocol than normal in order to de-sensitize my body to the drug.  The drawback is that it takes ALL day to administer it as they dilute it with a lot of fluid.  The computers were down on my first visit in the new cancer center, so that was a little chaotic for everyone.  Hopefully the internet will work better too.  I couldn't get to blogger to blog anything, and it has taken me until now to update things.    All that fancy shmancy stuff, and I just want to get on blogger!   

So far I have just been tired this week, but no nausea or anything, so that's good.   The doctor wants to keep on this type of combo that I am doing as I have had such good results with it so far.  Here's to hoping and praying we keep the good results coming.
