Update on new treatment
So far, so good. My new treatment regimen is going pretty well. Granted I've only been on it for three days but, I can tell the side effects dealing with fatigue, appetite, nausea, etc. is about the same as the other drugs I was taking. That's good news because I have been able to handle those side effects pretty well so far. What about the rash? Well, so far the rash is not shown itself in full force. I feel like I have a sunburn and my cheeks and neck which are definitely showing redness. I assume the rash will get progressively worse with each weekly infusion. I have to remember that according to the research on this drug, the worse the rash, the better it's working. That is it so far. I had a good weekend and I'm looking forward to a good week. I hope you all have a good week also!

If you take your dog for a walk and you both use the same tree . . . if you stare at an orange juice can because it says "concentrate" . . . if your son's name is Dale Jr. and your name's not Dale . . . if you're busy kicking cancer's ass . . . you might have a red neck.
ReplyDelete"Ditto" Bob. Also, if your front porch collapses and it hurts 12 dogs, you might be a redneck..
