I was going to post yesterday but I wasn't able to connect to the Internet...hmmm.
Well, I had another symptom 'pop' up...my eyelids got puffy! It began on Tuesday and each day got a bit puffier! So, knowing that the weekend was coming up, I decided to contact the center to see what can be done. I took a photo and I looked so bad that I didn't have the nerve to 'forward' it to the clinical nurse! How vane am I?!!! Charlie saw the photo and didn't think it was me!!!
I had an appointment and Dr. May was out for the weekend...so I saw Dr. Halabie (spelling?)...the last time I had seen him was when I noticed the 'pimple' on my gum...I was a little scared thinking the worst! What a mind I have!!!
Being on this clinical study there is protocol to follow...so I am taking prednasone for a week. Today is the second day and the puffiness went down. This prednasone is a great drug!!! My finger cuts and mouth sores feel better too!
I go for blood work on Monday then my cocktail #30 on Wednesday and pump disconnect on Friday.
That's the story for the day! Neither the clinical nurse nor Dr. H. know what caused my eyelids to get puffy....guess we'll see what happens with this next cocktail.....and the clinical nurse was just talking to Dr. May a week ago saying how well I am doing with these treatments...guess she spoke too soon!
