OK, got a call from a doctor yesterday! After telling us about six times that he was not an Oncologist, he told us that the chemo appeared to be doing its job! Waiting for conformation, but got some happy to hear even a primilary report! The guy's a Radiologist so he's probably seen tumers before.

The radiologist is your friend, as are all the doctors, nurses and everyone else you come across in your medical journey - though they may not seem so at times. Sorry to hear aobut your flu shot reaction. Rest well, stay strong, and when you're feeling extra-ornery, get one of those movie set bar glasses made of sugar that you can bite and chew to get the point across.

 

[Captain O]

Again, I humbly thank you all.

We're blood, pal! We fight for our nation, liberty and each other. (You weren't expecting anything less, were you)?

Godspeed and rock on, brother!

 

[Kruel J]

That's great news Steve!! We're all pulling for you!

LOL!!! Shmit boy, I chew real glass when I feel ornery!

It's interesting that you mention the med staff being friends!
The doctors tell us often that they are our friends and they are totally my advocates! It's true too! The entire staff of Oncology and Radiology are incredibly friendly and helpful! They do their best to speed us through the system, too. I really appreciate that, I've hated waiting since the Army!
Friendly or not, I'm a firm believer in, "Ya don't pizz off the people
that care for your health and well being!"

Again, I humbly thank you all.

Actually Sarge its us who should be humbled. For knowing you and having the honor of calling you friend.

Those Da8n flu shots can bite you, I'm guessing you had a reaction to the shot!
I won't get them anymore because every time I did I ended up with the flu.
Gabby

My parents got them every year & like clockwork they were sick... I thought they were so smart but they slipped occasionally.
I'll never take one, I'll take my chances.

 

[Sgt Nambu]

I get them every year and very rarely a problem! The flu shots help me tip the odds a little bit in my favor because of my compromised immune system. All the more compromised now!

That's fine Sarg, some people do well with them & I'm glad for them.

Since I've got the Type 1



No cure for that, and can compromise the immune system, so I get the flu shot every year, just to be on the safe side.

My wife was a medic in the Army (2 years) and ANG (15 years) she reminds me all the time you don't mess with the cooks nor the medics, because either one can make you go to the hospital real quick.

 

[Sgt Nambu]

Yeah, my granddaughter was a Corpsman in the Navy, she gets it too!

Are you feeling better?
It sounds like you are a bit more chipper, and that's a good thing it helps keep your spirits up.
You are an example to those of us (like me) that aren't as strong as you. I'm scared 8h8tless of that nasty C word critter.
We all know we aren't getting out of this world alive but someone who isn't whimpering sets a great example for the rest of us. I pray you are able to continue and get a reprieve from this nasty crap.
Hang in there partner, we're all pulling for you, and praying that it helps you get better SOON!

Not great today, Gabby, lack of sleep! Tomorrow another load of chemo drugs so I won't sleep tonight. They give me powerful steroids to facilitate my body accepting the chemo, before bed, and there's no sleeping with those!

I can't like that post it sounds too terrible .

Hang in there. Thoughts and prayers still watching this thread.

 

[Sgt Nambu]

Thanks guys!

 

[Captain O]

Thanks, guys!

Do your best to get some sleep. It is the ONLY way your body can fight against cancer. THe Chemotherapy depletes your strength, and you need to rejuvenate/regenerate to regain your strength.

Rest, brother. Sweet, peaceful rest.

In God's love,

Captain O

 

[BillGabby1]

Sorry to hear that you have to put up with reactions such as that.
Sleep is so instrumental to healing.
Thinking of you!

Just wait until a mosquito bites you and falls dead to the ground—that is instant payback!!

You still need to track me down you old fart. Keep kicking it in the nuts till it stops moving.
