    4 more days just to see the surgeon, don't know surgery date, am assuming since have been off chemo since part of April, the stupid tumor keeps growing.  Will probably do the liquid diet, seems like that may be the easier way to go (pun intended).

    Thank you everyone, here's to the pain getting better at some point soonest.

    So sorry for the pain your having.  It reminds me of the pain I had after going through chemo/radiation to the anal cancer I had.  30 days of radiation to that area.  I know that the roxycodone (sp)? helped immensley.  I hope you will have relief soon. Lori

    If not to ER

    Go to Urgent or Walk-in tomorrow should you not be able to use the ER.  Excess pain is not helpful and may make your situation worse.  Sometimes the sufferings of the disease are not educational...AT ALL.

    Gentle hugs and hope of blessings for you and your family.

    Sorry

    I'm so sorry you are going through so much pain.  Wish that surgeon would just give you a quick date and get done with what you have to feel better.  I'm praying that you get relief soon.

    Hugs! Kim

    liquid diet

    So sorry, Winter Mary, Yes indeed the liquid diet might help you. I did before my surgery, it sucks, but I put heaps of protein powder in my juice.

    Had Probiotic pills and Omega 3 capsules. Stools remainded nice and soft.

    Healing wishes going your way, hope surgery will be soon,

    Hugs, Marjan

    Been off

    I've been off since April in preparation for the liver resection I had, then was to go back on in July, then tumor in Colon found during colonoscopy, then was referred to surgeon, then CT/PET scan that was done showed 8x7 cm and 7x6 and another 8x something or another tumors in lungs and thorax so they said, NOPE sorry no surgery for you, then my oncologist went to Stanford to look at the scan results with the reporting radiologist and it was discovered (as my Oncologist had thought) that it should have read "mm" and not "cm" so was okayed again to go for surgery, but had to wait for another appointment to open up which is this Wednesday.  So will find out when surgery date is hopefully on Wednesday.

    Am assuming all this time off of chemo has allowed the tumor to grow.  I realized yesterday what the pain felt like, and it feels like labor pains.  Since going liquid diet, instead of labor pains every ten minutes it more like two or three an hour now, which is an improvement of some sort ;).  Can't wait for appt on Wednesday and getting a surgery date.  Instead of giving birth to a baby, I feel like I'm giving birth to a tumor.

    Thank you everyone for your sympathies, it does help one feel better!  Knowing many of you have gone through the same pain somehow makes it more endurable, as in "if they could handle it, I can handle it".

    Love to you all,

    Winter Marie
