This is my own story of life with advanced ovarian cancer. I do not offer medical advice, and my treatment decisions are my own. Please talk to your physician or healer and gain as much information as you can about this dreadful disease called cancer. Remember, knowledge is Power!

Weekly roundup

It's been a bad week. I had the barium CT on Tuesday, and have to wait til NEXT Tuesday to get any results. Did you know that barium can exit your body at the most random times? (You know what I'm talkin' about, Willis.) Wednesday night I was in the ER (2nd trip this year) for severe pain in my left calf. Had a 4 hour workup for DVT but all tests were negative. I was given a new rx for Percocet and sent home. It still hurts like a mofo, and all my major joints are painin' me, too. I have to decide whether to suffer the pain, or fall into oblivion with the Percocet. The Percocet wins, every time.

My support group at the Wellness Community yesterday were awesome, as usual. I need to go there as much as I can because I find comfort there, from many sources. If you have a Wellness Community in your area, I encourage you to check it out. It's free.

I really shouldn't be PUI (posting under the influence), but it sure makes for some interesting reading the next day.
