Well, last week and this week have been exciting.  

On Monday evening (which was day 16), I started having cramping, which turned to nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea-- lovely.  I ended up taking zofran and compazine for Tuesday (after consulting with my doctor.  Then on Wednesday, I had a CT scan, which contributed to cramping and diarrhea.  The doctor ordered kidney functioning tests and a CBC.  The radiologist said that I should get the results on Friday.  I have an appointment on Wednesday with my oncologist (gyn-onc), and there have been no phone calls.

I'm "assuming" that the blood tests were "normal", because if there was something seriously wrong, I would have had a phone call to be admitted into the hospital.  I am still nervous about the CT scan.

Positive--

Lungs are still clear
No aches or pains
Good Appetite
Normal peeing and pooping

Negative--

Fatigue
Elevated CA-125

So please cross your fingers and toes that the scans are clear...
