Well, tomorrow I go back into day surgery to have a MedPort put into my chest for them to administer the chemo through when they start the treatments. It is a port that will go into a main artery. Dr. Sullivan says they can't administer chemo thru the veins in your arms 'cos the chemo will end up burning the veins up. Nice thought!! Oh well, I guess it is to be expected when you are putting poison into your body.
I contacted Texas Oncology to get the appointment scheduled to begin the chemo and radiation. They said my MD's office needs to send them all my records, so Dr. Sullivan's office was suppose to do it Monday. If I don't hear from Texas Oncology soon, I will call them again. I am ready to get this show on the road. I don't want it to drag on for weeks. The tumor can be really painful at times, and it is causing other problems (that I don't want to get graphic about), but it involves running to the bathroom alot. I am ready for this thing to quit growing and start dying and shrinking! I feel like I am carrying a monster inside of me that is eating me alive from the inside out.
Will meet with the surgeon Friday.
Let's get this show going!!
