A lot of things happened these last few days! On the 12th I had a visit with my oncologist, who gave me a new chemo to do, and this time it's pills. I have to take them everyday until the next visit, June 1st, and if everything's going smoothly we'll do three cycles and then the pet scan and see if it's working like it should. Then they'll decide ( Read more... )

Thanks for the update, hon. Here's hoping everything goes smoothly and without any nasty side effects. Playing Radiohead on the ukulele seems to me like a great way to celebrate! :)

So glad you're slowly getting your strength back and are putting on some weight. Keep up the good work!!! Thinking of you all the time. ♥ ♥ ♥

(P.S. - the mailman might deliver a little something for you in the next few days. Watch out!) ^^

I went for a Big Tasty, with a lot of fries and an iced tea, while my cousin tried the new Angus burger, and then instead of eating it she just watched in awe yours truly wolfind down everything in less than ten seconds. Oh junk food, how I missed you, let me count the ways. *____*

And thank god I live in Italy, because these pills are super expensive, and I take 13 a day! If I lived in the USA, with the pre-existing conditions bs and all, I'd be dead. O_O

Mi sono persa tanti di quei post, mi dispiace immensamente! Soprattutto dopo aver letto tutto quello che ti è successo!!

Posso capire gli effetti collaterali della chemio solo per sentito dire - e quello che ho visto su mia madre - meno male che questa volta non sono stati devastanti.

Tu guadagna peso, io mi impegno nel contempo a seguire la dieta e dimagrire ^^

Figurati, è successo tutto nell'ultimo mese e mezzo, è normale che te lo sia perso, non preoccuparti. :*

Le chemio di oggi sono moooolto più leggere di quelle di dieci anni fa che ci ricordiamo tu ed io, quindi io evito sempre di lamentarmi. Un medico dell'ospedale di qui mi diceva che, sebbene lui capisca come funzionano queste nuove chemio e tutto, resta ancora sconvolto da quanto incredibili siano, facendomi proprio l'esempio di una chemio in pillole. Finisco il primo ciclo sabato, e ho avuto degli effetti talmente traascurabili che neanche li noterei se non stessi attenta.

Viva la ricerca! \o/
