4th cycle of R-GIFOX

Mar 31, 2007 11:46

Was admitted from 12th to 28th March.
This was my 4th (and final) cycle of R-GIFOX chemo regime.
(I still have a high dose chemo before transplant, but thats using different drugs)

Got a fever (Yes AGAIN!) on the first day and they had to stop & hold my chemo for a day for observation & safety reasons.
They put me on antibiotic drip (again) that runs ( Read more... )

Dear Ian, you are just the bravest soldier, keep up your appetite because you know how when you feel unwell, ypur appetite will drop. So eat as much as you can and all the sinful stuff that you like. Stay away from heavy crowds as there's a flu and cough bug flying around...its really bad...and I have it bad as well. Hope to recover and see you soon! HUGS

HIya! Seng here. =) anonymous April 2 2007, 14:13:37 UTC

Hi Ian, Seng here (http://www.yayasengspeaks.blogspot.com/)

Just got to know about u after u left ur comments on my blog. Hmm.. didnt get to see you on my visits to NUH during appointments nor as a volunteer. I sometimes pop over with Pastor Patrick or on my own. I wish you all the best in fighting on. Glad to read about your high spirits, cos having a positive mind is crucial in this fight.

Wonder if u know Belinda? she is from the stem cell transplant section. Do add me on msn at yayaseng@hotmail.com. Can chat with you. =)

Take care and fight on!!

Cheers,
Seng

Hi Ian,

Nope, not from FCBC. Had met Pastor Patrick when he visited me during my chemo and i decided to help out when i recovered. But now final year and exams coming, so seldom pop down to NUH. Once my exams clear, will be going down to help. =)
