I know tomorrow is your first chemo and I will be right there with you with prayers and hugs.  I'll even drive the bus if you would like.

Try to be calm and if you need it, take the med to relax you (it even helps with nausea on the day of tx).

Take care and let us know how you are doing.

God bless,

Sandy

    Sorry I Missed the Bus...

    I hope Doe1504 had company in the chemo room today.  Sorry I missed the bus.

    It does make the time go faster when there are friends to talk too.

    Perhaps Doe1504 can give us an update from today.  

    I have my treatment next week, I don't look forward to it.  I have had my 2 weeks off though I spent last week having 3 infusions of iron.  I hope this time around, they give me iron infusion along with the chemo so I won't become so depleted.

    Hope it went well today, Doe.

    Best,

    Doris

    Thank you Sandy, I will

    Thank you Sandy, I will surely need the pink bus and be glad to be on it with friends :) I dread it, but I only have to do 4 of these, one every 2 weeks. I will definitely keep you posted. Thanks again.

    Doris, you didn't miss the ride yet. Hop on in the morning and we will go do this!

    Thank you girls! The ride was

    Thank you girls! The ride was easy! The chemo ws ok, no problems there. Drank so much had to pee like 4 times at the center. haha Got home and due to stormy weather had a horrible sick sinus headache. Feel some better today. Got to have the neulsta shot today. We will see how this goes. Nausea usually hits in 3-5 after chemo according the nurse. Please pray that it goes lite for me. Thank you again my pink sisters! Prayers for all of you.

    So glad it went well for you

    I will continue to pray things move uneventfully for you.

    I saw onco today and he changed nausea meds, so my next chemo next Friday should run more smoothly.

    Take care

    Thanks Sandy and Ginny. So

    Thanks Sandy and Ginny. So far so good. I am on 6 meds. Emend, Zofran and Compazine for nausea. I am on Claritan to help with bone pain from the Neulasta shot. And I take Prilosec for heartburn and a steroid called Decadron. I am drinking a lot! Peeing a lot! lol Thanks for the prayers, keep them coming. I am praying for all my pink sisters.

    Good luck with the new mausea meds, Sandy. Keep me posted.
