I guess you are wondering about the picture. That is my collarbone area. I am pointing to the bruised area where they had trouble getting to my vein. So they went up higher and the power port is the lower taped area. My neck is sore.
Today, I had to go for an ultra sound. The oncologist wanted the fibroid tumor measured to see if it has grown any. They told me to go with my bladder full. I thank God that I am a teacher. A full bladder is one thing that is easy for teachers. So I have done the ultrasound and she didn't think it had grown any. Good news!
The cancer center called and changed my time to 11:00 for chemo tomorrow. I was disappointed to have my time changed, but I have to understand that is not in my control. Patience is testing me every chance that comes along! Speaking of patience...do you know how many times you raise your hand without thinking about it. I do! Let me give you a few examples ... scratching your head, putting on your shirt, brushing-washing your hair, putting on-taking off shirts, and stretching! Oh my goodness I have limited use of the right hand, and the left one hurts, and it is uncomfortable to turn my head. This to shall pass! I can do this! It is what it is!
