I need to call the doctor today to schedule an appointment as I have figured out that the drip is the problem. I don't know why I have it or why it's causing so many stomach issues, but if I take the right medication, the drip stops and the upset stomach disappears. Weird, huh? Unfortunately, the medicine that stops the drip makes me feel light-headed and woozy, and taking half a dose doesn't stop the drip so I'm trading one issue for another. I guess as long as I can eat and keep food down, that's the most important part. I am happy to report that after losing seven pounds during this ordeal, I actually gained one pound back yesterday. Must have been all the bread I ate!
Doxil is tomorrow at noon. I'm not looking forward to it, especially since the radiation dermititis on my lower back is healing quite nicely, and I think the Doxil will cause it to flare up again. It was very raw and sore for about 10 days, but the medication the nurse gave me last week has made a marked improvement. I'll have to ask for another free sample tomorrow.
I still get tired very easily, so I'll sign off for now. Hope you are staying warm wherever you are!
