Gosh the last time I had a temper tantrum I think I was four. Oh well.
I'm back.
Okay so I went to my Oncologist appointment, he made me feel like I will survive this. So my mood has changed once again. My CEA count went from 38 last month to 17 this month.
He forgot to take my case for surgery to the Tumor board, but told me to make sure if I don't hear from him when he discusses this type of thing with me, to make sure I CALL the office and remind. Okay, I'll do that from now on. He's a good oncologist, I'm trusting him with my life, but dang, they have so many people to deal with. He's the kind that spends time with each patient. Got to appreciate that.

    Good!
    Glad the tantrum's over. *grins* And I'm very glad that the CEA is going down. I'm glad you have such a good oncologist looking after you.

    *hugs*

    A lot of us go thru those feelings! Awesome about that CEA dropping like that. You take care.

    Tantrums:

    Tantrums are good. Heck, when I see people really at their wits end I tell them to go and have a full blown freak out, even scaring the neighbors! Sometimes, you just need that release to calm yourself down and get to the business of living.

    Take care - Tina

    Understandable
    Totally get the anger part, who wouldn't feel a little pissed off every now and again with everything we deal with? Now just channel it towards fighting your cancer. Sounds like you have a good Dr. Our Oncologists are like our cancer cheerleaders always cheering us on and helping us continue to fight.
