Julie got an MRI and Pet Scan two weeks ago. Her appointment last week to review the results with her doctor were rescheduled for a nurse practitioner. Then the nurse practitioner cancelled.out. We assume that since they were not in a rush to tell us the results, it must be good. When Julie got her Herceptan / Zometa this week, the nurse whispered in her ear, the results were normal. So, visits are rescheduled again this week to see the doc.
Julie also dropped down from 5 Tykerb pills, which is supposed to stop the cancer from going into the brain, to only 4 pills. This pill gave her diarrhea and gas all the time. She says she almost fills normal on this dosage. I have noticed that she is doing a lot more and has even worked in her garden some this past week.
Who knows how Olesia is doing. She is open for Spring break, I haven't seen her study. She had Strep throat again. About a dozen times in her life so far. She is still recovering from Mono and is now on antibiotics for Strep. She is sick a lot and does not have good study habits or routine sleeping or eating habits. She is also struggling with IBS, fibromyalgia and allergies. We will be lucky if Obama-care passes, otherwise when she drops out of college she is not going to have medical care since we will no longer be able to keep her own our policy ... and it is unlikely that she will be able to get insurance with her pre-existing conditions. Bummer.
