GETTING 'THINGS' STRAITENED OUT

Tuesday, May 4, 2021 4:40 PM

Chemo was Thursday, Apr. 29. Next day just quiet, nothing too bad. Saturday, only slight nausea, which meds calmed right away. Flare up of ??? Severe pain from the heel of my feet, radiating to upper thy. Hasn't stopped for a bit. Doesn't allow for more than 1 hr. sleep at a time. Sunday, pinkish tinge to urine. Severe pain from abdomen to back, that sent me to hospital. 10:30 - 3:00 a.m. Pretty much just waited through it with drugs, calming down around 1:30. Went for CT scan yesterday (for stones)???. On antibiotic today. 

  Called Cancer Centre nurse with questions from my G.P., to sort out any conflicts with meds. Larry's picking up Gabapentin right now. Hopefully this bone/muscle leg pain will stop. Sleeping for a few consecutive hours is my hope. Also, severe constipation, big problem. If nothing today, I get to go to the hospital again for them to take care of it. Yuk. And, yes! I'm drinking water!

  People are calling, etc. wanting to know. I can't address any text, whatsap, anything. Will try to report each day with Larry's help. If you 'need' to call, pls text Larry. 

  I appreciate your love & concern. Just gotta get through this, like many things in our lives. The mountain's just a little more steep & rugged right now.

  God bless you. Xoo
