I'm at the hospital with Julie, she is getting an MRI. She has lost vision in her lower right quadrant in both eyes. There are also some balance problems and a little weakness on her left side.Eye doctor sent her to her cancer doctor who sent us her. The doc more or less ruled out a stroke. She has already put Julie on a steroid to reduce any swelling in her brain. Julie has been having headaches and trouble reading for about two weeks.
They will probably put her on a second drug in addition to herceptan, called Tykerb. Will get more information.. I think radiation treatment might be another option...my thoughts are not as clear as normal. As if I knew what was normal anymore. I don't think Julie should be driving, so I am concerned about the second week in March when I am supposed to go meet my new boss in upstate NY. I guess one hour at a time. We have an appointment to get the results of the MRI about 9 am tomorrow. I will update this blog then.
