takin 'er easy:)

Hi! I had my PET scan yesterday, will be getting my results and an action plan on Friday when i have my oncology appointment.  Only a little drama with the IV; I always have to go to the hospital to have the IV placed because the peeps at the PET scan place scarred me for life when it took them 7 tries and they finally put the IV in my FOOT!!! one time, a couple years ago. So, now I go to Strong and have either their crack IV team, an anesthesiologist, or my onc nurses if they're feeling brave, place it for me then i drive one armed to the scan:) awkward but way less tears that way!!

I've been off most of last week and all of this week...its been awesome:) I'm feeling good, just the neuropathy in my feet and some pain in my middle back vertebrae.  My feet feel like I've got shoes on that are a couple sizes too small - pressure and tingly.  Strange that it keeps getting worse even tho i haven't had chemo in almost 2 weeks. :( keep hoping it'll go away.  But other than that, I'm good!

Will update on Friday once I get the news about my scan results. Later!
