April 2012 Catch Up

OH MY I have been remiss in keeping this thing updated. You all going to start thinking I dropped off the face of the earth and no one told you.

On Thursday 05 April 2012 I saw Dr R again and he was quite pleased with the results that we are getting from this new drug, (Anastrozole (ARIMIDEX), the tumors in the breast and under the arm have shown a great response to it and shrunk considerably, so we will go another 6 weeks on this drug and see if the results continue to be this great.

The major problem that I've been having is as usual the extreme exhaustion. I've been having trouble getting 10,000 steps a day in not my usual 15,000 - 20,000 that I was doing before this drug.

well went in today and had my port flushed. was in and out in nothing flat. Now next week when I see the DR we'll be there forever I bet, even though it is almost the first one of the day.

Nothing much to report other than extreme exhaustion. It seems that all I want to do is sleep. there fore my walking has taken a major nose dive. I'm lucky to get 10,000 steps (5 miles) a day in these days.
