So far I have only experienced one side effect maybe two. The first was feeling like I had been hit by a Mack truck, the second I am watching closely because there is a potential for diarrhea, so far it has just been softer stools. I was told to watch out for bruising and of course I banged my leg after work yesterday and the other thing I am half expecting is to lose my hair and that is also referenced in the paper work on these drugs.

The scan results are in and now I know why I have the liver pain. I should have realized that the news wouldn't be good, I have more mets to the liver. God, is still in control. I need to be aware that no matter what is happening. Lord, encourage me and give me the strength for the appointment coming on Tuesday and to face any new treatments I will be going through.

I'm not sure if what I am feeling is cancer related or not, but you know how it is every little thing or pain and immediately you are thinking more or worse mets.

I should have posted this in January after I finished the chemo and had the last CT scan. The liver mets are gone and the bone mets were radiated to help control the pain. I was able to cut back some on the pain meds which I think is a good thing. I have also started back to work this week. WooHoo I'm doing well.This goes to show how much power there is in prayer. Without it I don't think I would be doing as well. Thanks to everyone who prayed.

Yesterday's chemo went well, No real nausea but some minor queasiness but otherwise OK. Today was different. I had the CT scan as scheduled and to accompany that afterward was some nausea and fatigue. I went to oncology for some Zofran and fluids which helped stop the nausea,. Lunch was provided as well which was a good thing.

I may or may not need more Zodran tonight I'll see how UI am feeling latter. Enough of my rambling, thanks for listening, Love Lana
