blueberry power

tiger

Hi there ladies, Tiger here AGAIN !! Well, the constipation problem is solved, tasty too!! Blueberry pie, my husband picked one up yesterday for me, country market style, I had one piece and that night, wham,bam,hello dolly!!! My belly feels alot better. (and it is all natural!!) So I think after every chemo,blueberry pie should be prescribed to us all.
Now on to a different topic, "The Power of Percocet" Well, let me tell you a little story.
I was having really bad pain from the Taxol,but I was trying to 'grin and bear it' well,today I broke down and took ONE HALF of a percocet, it hit about 45 minutes later,so i took myself off to bed for a nap, well, i did not know if I was awake or asleep,but the dreams I was having were unreal, I could feel myself trying to wake up,but could not,it was like being underwater but not able to come up for air. At one point I thought I was awake, trying to open my eyes ,and my bedroom was upside down and I could not get out from under to covers!! But of course I was still asleep. I finally woke up feeling totally unrefreshed from my little nap, I told my husband and he laughed, he thinks I am weird anyway. I was so disoriented it was unreal. Needless to say, I think I am going to stick to the 'grin and bear it' attitude from now on!!! I still feel like someone rolled me in the gutter,but tomorrow is a new day. Have yourselves a great evening, I am hitting the bed. fight the good fight.
Love from Tiger. xoxox

Rosa, nancy here again. I take a stool softner everyday and that seems to keep me "moving". Also spinach has always been good for me, and oranges. I eat an orange every morning at breakfast. One thing i have found that I can not eat is "beans". My friend in CA. went through a lot of chemo years ago and he told me all he could eat was oatmeal and taco bell's bean burritos. Well I tried the bean burrito and it tasted really good so I had another one the next night. Then I had to email him and tell him those bean burritos went down real easy ,"BUT HOW DO I GET THEM OUT???" So I avoid beans now. Blueberry pie does sound yum yum good. Love, nancy

Have you tried Vioxx for the taxol pain? I had alot of pain when I was on taxol and Vioxx helped.

Good luck and hang in there.
