R & R

that's what I've had lately.

2/9, i had the first chemo that was ONLY the clinical trial.
no anti-nausea meds........ no gallons of hydration.

and ya know? it was easy. seriously. i can do this.

been to see the radiation oncologist. he's wonderful.

so next week, we start radiation. somewhere around 5-1/2 weeks, 5 days a week.

he says i won't glow in the dark.

i'm not so sure.

but i'm doing ok.

I had a CT Scan with Contrast yesterday morning. loads of fun. did i mention i'm allergic to contrast dye?

means i was taking prednisone in the middle of the night, and double doses of benedryl too.

doctor's office told me i wouldn't have the results till the end of next week, when i see the doctor.

bullshit. i told them that was sadistic, and if doc had results in a day or two, i wanted 'em then, too.

he celled me last night.

"the scans look very good. there is no evidence of the disease"

so far, so good. i'm still cancer free.
