first appt. with Lymphedema center today..PET SCAN in 2 weeks
So far, with the reduction in T, rough side effects from a couple weeks ago have not returned...but I am only in day 2 since infusion....usually takes 4-5 for me to get bad...keeping my fingers crossed this time will be easier.

Good luck with PET scan
Glad your visit with doc. today was a good one. Well as good as can be expected and I'm glad to hear you're tolerating the meds. for now. I do hope that your PET scan comes back really, really, really good; with all the side effects you've had to deal with you deserve a break right now!!!
I'll be right there in the machine with you; could be a little crowded but what the hey! It's lonely in there!
Prayers and good vibes coming your way,

I am a bit scared to do the PETscan, but also looking forward to it and getting it over with..........then the wait for results......see you in the tube!0 -
Glad you got
a sleeve ordered. Ordering a designed one sounds great! I didn't have any side effects for the first couple of days either. I hope this time around is much better than your last round with the lowered T. I have my PET scan on Aug 23. I get my 2nd chemo the day you're having your PET scan. I will be very relieved if and when the dr tells me all is ok. Hang in there, you're almost done with chemo.

We'll all be praying for the good news on the PET scanjo jo said:Cavediver glad you got
Cavediver glad you got fitted for your sleeve and i just want to tell ya good luck on your Pet Scan on the 31st ...just let us know the results when you get them.
I got measured for a sleeve and glove this week too. My swelling is in my breast and along my ribs (where my drain was). But, I'll be flying twice in Sept. and both my PT and lymphedema spec. said I should ALWAYS wear the sleeve when I fly as a precaution. I had 23 lymph nodes removed, so I'll have to be careful forever.
Good luck--keep us posted.
Hugs, Renee0
