My young cousin died from metastatic breast cancer today, leaving behind her husband, 7 year old, and 3 year old twins.

Could use some positive energy and prayers. I have had a reaction to chemo the last two infusions...they are trying a desensitization procedure tomorrow. Really hope this works 🙏

Feeling stressed....cancer is spreading so starting FOLFOX today. No Avastin due to my struggle with intestinal obstructions....and found out last week I am ineligible for clinical trials for the same reason.

Spent nearly four hours at the oncology center today only to be told no chemo because Xray indicated I could be developing an intestinal obstruction. Trust me...I have had so many I know this wasn't one. Sigh....

Started FOLFOX yesterday....they gave me a reduced dose of Oxceliplatin because I already have neuropathy. Now I am concerned because I have no cold sensitivity. Cancer is when you worry because you don't have enough side effects

So had chemo today and very few things sound appetizing. Add to that I have diabetes so have to watch the sugar when carbs are what I crave...add to that I was in hospital for half of August with small bowel blockage so there is another list of foods I can't eat..

A glimmer of hope, carcinomies. At my insistence onc added Avastin back to my infusion. CEA did not rise for first time in a while. We gotta self advocate! (It had been d/c due to all my intestinal obstructions) Modified my diet and haven't had one in 3+ mo. Pushed hard and won!

Some of us may occasionally post something disparaging about muggles....maybe we are having a bad day of chemo side effects, perhaps we are coming to term with our own mortality, or it was just a moment...this may be the only safe place we can unload and then move on.

I think there is such a thing as cancer guilt...feeling bad if you have it better than some people, feeling bad if you feel a bit jealous if you aren't doing as well as others....I like to hear the good news. It lends some balance to the bad news.

I like to share my story as it wasn't the typical one. I dutifully had my colonoscopies and was given the all clear...however, my colon was a real loop-the-loop roller coaster so they didn't get all the way around. They did a virtual imaging in 2017 - no concern

If my story could cause others to push harder to get a more complete colonscopy or push to find a reason why you are suddenly anemic, maybe they won't have to go through this shit show

In December 2017 suddenly I am anemic for the first time ever - weird. In spring 2018 I started getting really bad stomach aches - might last 2 hours or 2 days - they start looking for diverticulitis, gall bladder, etc. Sent me to a gastro specialist - he asks to do a colonoscopy

Started FOLFOX with reduced Oxaliplatin because of my neuropathy. No Avastin due to all the intestinal obstructions I have had. Met with PA yesterday and she increased my Oxy dosage....saw my CEA from yesterday's labwork and number have jumped. Options are limited.
