After waiting another 30 minutes for my treatment yesterday, I was finished in about 40 minutes. It went fine and I managed to stay awake long enough to eat some dinner last night.
Today will be crazy. My appointment for radiation is at 9:45 and then I have to leave the city immediately to make my Zometa appointment in New Jersey at 2:30 -- and hopefully sneak in a bite of lunch in between. Last time I had Zometa (which was also the first time), you may recall I woke up the next day very nauseated. Today I'm going to take some Ativan prior to my treatment, since I have to come into the city tomorrow for my final skull radiation treatment (1:15 p.m.). On Monday, I'll have my single pelvic treatment and then I'll be done. At least I'll be home in time to have a decent dinner tonight and still hit the sack early.
No hair loss yet, but my skin is still pink. No noticeable sensitivity on my scalp, but I'm sure it's coming. Hope the wig doesn't bother it when that happens.
I'm assuming that my next Doxil treatment will be scheduled on or around December 19 and I don't know when my next scans will be. Will have to coordinate that with Dr. K and find out from Dr. Yamada's office when he will scan my skull and pelvis.
Until tomorrow...
