I feel the same way, Gwen. The more people with whom I make connections, the more I want to see what is going on with folks. There are some terrific people on this Blog. Best, Andra

Hi Ruth, No surprises on the Bx would be the best. I am sorry you are in pain. But it seems to me that if the meds help, use them. Pain is exhausting. Hope you feel better soon. Andrea

Hi Kellie, I didn't "qualify" for thyrogen because I had to much metastasis. So I will be happy to hear from you about how it goes after your RAI. Good luck! Andra

All my friends here are so great. You don't have to respond to these but I sure love it!

Poor sweet Ruth! I am sorry to hear of your pain. As you know, I am against meds but if you are in that much pain, you may need them this time. It sounds horrible. Like some …eded and will cause undue pain like you are experiencing. Like you say Ruth, you have to use this area. Its not like getting a breast biopsy. Hope you feel better real soon!

Hi Martha, Thanks for your reply about my question. It's ok about the use of abbreviations. I used to be a unit clerk in critical care and am familiar with most medical terminolog…ing a fabulous weekend, too. I'm working on the ebook and would love a "story from the heart" about your cancer experience if you have one you'd like to share. Hugs, Theresa

Be a supporter which means follow her lead. I've read all of your posts and really feel for you and the family but I feel most for T. Every one seems to know what is best for her…to the doctor? I'm praying that T gets the support she needs and that you continue to be the good friend that you have been to her. I can tell that you are hurting too. Teresa

Ruth, Wishing you a speedy recovery from the pain. Along with Martha, I was scheduled for one and never got it. I have yet to have a PET as well. The cancer is gone cause the tumor is gone say's the doc's on this side of the U.S.... Thinking of you, K

Well, since I jumped before I asked questions, I already had the color on my head. I used Colorwell, which is a salon only brand. I left it on my head for 35 minutes instead of 45 …ifferent to my scalp for the first 5 minutes though. damn cancer. I already feel crummy . . . im tired of lookin crummy too. i swear i'm gonna beat this cancer, one way or another.
