Chemo Arrived Today.....

Well, what do ya know? All the hoops I jumped through a few days ago, paid off, as UPS delivered my chemo (Revlamid) around noon today. I must confess I had a bit of an anxiety attack again after the Rev was delivered....didn't last for too long, but felt my heart starting to race and a little shortness of breath. I also had to run to the pharmacy here, as my doctor called in 2 prescriptions I have to take with the chemo.....I needed to pick up my coumadin (blood thinner) and dexamethasone (a steriod that gives the chemo a little extra boost), so I could start the whole regime over again tonight. This merry-go-round sucks. The horses on it are ugly. I don't like it.

WOW.....someone posted this LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG Moronic comment at 4:04.AM today, so if you were sent this post by an auto generated post thingie, PLEASE IGNORE IT! It was obviously a *SPAM* and was posted on many a website. Lucky Me!! LOL.....I noticed they didn't have the guts and posted anonymously and didn't sign their name and based on what I read....it was about a bajillion pages long and made no sense what-so-ever.....Sorry Folks....that's what happens when there's a bunch of weirdos out there that have the time on their hands and do nothing productive. If it happens again, I'll have to figure out a way to BLOCK this person. Thanks! Jan

Hey Susz
it was a post about government agencies and spys and other weird stuff! LOL Glad you didn't get it as it was really fascist oriented and made NO sense! Just rambling and rambling....that's all I need! LOL

Jan,

Glad you got your meds (sorry you have to have them) but glad you got them fairly fast. Kim also begins a new round of Dex and Thalidomide tomorrow. Gotta love that Dex. No sleep, but he always writes me lovey dovey notes when he comes off it. We're praying for you every day.

You are too funny Denese....Hope you saved all of them in a notebook or something, as it might make for some great reading together one day! I have another MM friend ( a man I met through my doctors office) and he too has those crazy effects from dex. He told me his wife is ready to kill him b/c he won't SHUT UP for about 3 days straight!! I have never (oh my fingers are SOOOOOOOO crossed) never had that side effect from the dex. And if I do, there's no one here to drive crazy except for my dogs, so I hope they don't have a meeting and gang up on me! And my only other option would be to get on the phone and talk everyone's ear off. Sheesh...don't want anyone to make their phone number unlisted!! LMAO!!
