DOB: 11-01-59


Pain issues

No pain. (not an indicator for me) Port still hurts more of a burning sensation. Starting to drag right hip again.

Progress on Chemo

1. Tumor marks up.
2. Liver enzymes up.
3. Nose bleeds
4. Crying all of the time.
5. Extremely tired all of the time.
6. Insomnia


Hydration

Have not gone back into the ER since I started home hydration. Seems to help me feel much better little nausea, and vomiting.

Die Study

Study found placement of port was not normal (directly under incision) used TPA to clear blocked port line.

Questions

1. Why are we still doing Avastin/Taxol when blood tests and ultrasounds are showing that this is not helping?
2. Are there any other chemo drugs that we should be using?
3. Are there any clinical trails that might help?
4. Is Faslodex and Lupron helping?
5. When is it time to call Hospice?
6. Is the chemo increasing the quantity of life I have left?
7. If I stop chemo totally what kind of life would I have until I pass on?
8. How long do you believe I have left to live?
9. Will I have more energy if I stop chemo?


Please help me by answering these questions?



I always made the questions in 24 point to make it stand out more. I hope that this will help!!!!


GOD BLESS
