Nope

Posted by Bimsan on Thursday, June 18, 2009

Were no brachy today either. The tumor would not reduce : ( Some tumors behave in this way obviously does not begin and reduce correctly until the end of treatment. As it stands now, the instruments do not cover the entire tumor and then do nothing.

So now they add a further 6 external radiation to the 28 planned. Then will the survey on 6 July to see if they can start the interior. So at least two weeks extra that makes it Lundabo ...

On Tuesday I get my fifth chemotherapy treatment then they must also judge whether I can keep up with a sixth (4-6 is usual)

But there are some positive as well, her husband is påväg to fetch me home for long weekend : Lol: Since cyt-reading is now on Tuesdays, I need not go here last Monday morning for tests and radiation - so nice!

None Brachy

Posted by Bimsan on Thursday, June 11, 2009

Were no brachytherapy (internal radiation) today. Was anesthetized and were ready but the tumor had not decreased at the pace they wanted and it was bleeding too much. Since it was still much radiation can not be addressed properly so now they will try again in a week. Not sure it will be by then either but I may of course ordinary radiation and chemotherapy over time as smaller and smaller is the course. Just gets a bit more prolonged treatment, but a few weeks here or there much as it is not important.

Had the visit Sunday and now has the hotel's finest felt and a pink teddy bear. And pink tea lights lit up my life in the evening Smile

Waiting room

Posted by Bimsan on Wednesday, June 10, 2009

Today I finally got in mind to shoot the waiting room. I have never succeeded with a Benjaminfikus and here they have it as a tree ... Linked soft mass with monkeys in the branches might not get a good photo of them (taking pictures with cell phone)

Chemotherapy

Posted by Bimsan on Tuesday, May 26, 2009

So, now I'm back after a day and a night on the ward and my first chemotherapy treatment. Received steroids and other pills against nausea as pepper, pepper, I'm not feeling bad yet. Will the course still get delayed nausea but when you associate course it is not just for reading and then I will not drag me to the next treatment (I think).

Has the course barely slept last night because we would be awakened every 4-hours (drink / pee :) ) Which meant I was waiting on them. I took sleeping pills but they could not "take over". So it is probably a little nap in the afternoon.

I feel positive at ease because it went so well with cytostatikan and to my sister comes to see me tomorrow (L)

Permission

Posted by Bimsan on Friday, May 22, 2009

Now I'm home on leave. Not very happy to have me home, I sleep most of the time but I think it's great to be here.

Have a little sore arm where the PICC is linen, feels that training works. We'll see if it will pass otherwise I may take it up with the Chamber on Monday. I'll spend all day and night on the ward because I will have chemotherapy then. The kidneys are very beaten by the poison, so I should drink at least four liters which they wish to track, hence the stay.

Going back on Sunday so I can get up early and get radiation before cytostatikan so I do not sit and pinch of the radiation (4 liters is a lot ...)

Was a bit cumbersome to radiation last Thursday (waited for 3 hours) for the machine broke down and there were many who had vacation. Of course there were many who "have to" jump the queue once it started. They blamed the car and check-out from the hotel. What a feeling it was a go when we left and I saw that two of those who joined the queue was still waiting for their cars :) My Krille course looked me up in the radiation because I did not answer the phone and had turned off the cell phone. So I was joined earlier and got away - TJI got you!

A picture of my little PICC line, well packaged before Monday :-D

Lund

Posted by Bimsan on Wednesday, May 13, 2009

Now I've been on förbesök in Lund and my whole stomach is a small work of art :) They have magnetic resonance to be able to set the radiation and marked with a marker pen. Now we must be careful in the shower for the markings should be left to the 19de.

The 19de should I insert the PICC-line chemotherapy is not good for the veins so you can not inject it directly - but the chemo is the other part is not good for anything except nasty tumors.

After that it will be time for the first of the 28 external radiation therapy. Then it's time for internal radiation. How many internal it will depend on the outcome of the other two åtgärdena.

The 25de, it is then time for the first dose of chemotherapy.

Have already been mass medication side effects and a morphine-like drugs for my pain.

They will also keep proper track of my blood count to go over the 110 to get a blood transfusion because otherwise it does not take the radiation properly. Today I had 122 so it was a bit low (hence my dizziness) but better than what you would think because I bleed so much.

Tests the MS Writer

Posted by Bimsan on Monday, May 11, 2009

Just installed the writer in my little notebook. Seems very smooth. Must now get a small script that can write n for me (liked your keyboard in red wine) to use it all the code for n entire tide is a bit cumbersome :)

Edit: Now I write only n out of it. Paragraph mark showed stress on the foot.
