The nurse from the oncology facility called to tell me the doctor does not want me to have Doxil until the infection is cleared up. So tomorrow I will have the Zometa and have the Doxil on the 22nd. I was hoping for 10 days between treatment and my scans (especially if I'm having stomach issues again and I have to drink the iodine and suffer the stress of the IV contrast needles), but it looks like that window has been closed. Guess I'll have to buck up, but I'm getting used to that.
My stomach is upset today but now I'm not sure if it's from the antibiotic or is the same old problem. I tried to avoid taking the Ativan, but finally gave in. Don't want to be vomiting at the office. It's bad enough doing it at home.
I'll report back in a few days.

About Me
- Karen
- I am a woman in her late 40s who was enjoying life when cancer came along and threw a monkey wrench in the whole business. This is the story of my fight against Leiomyosarcoma, a rare smooth muscle cancer that started in my left fibula (ankle bone) and has since spread to my pelvic bone, skull, and lungs. It's also the story of a woman trying to continue to enjoy life despite the complications cancer causes.
