After talking to the Dr. i decided that I would go ahead with the chemo and finish out my last 3 treatments. He decided he was more comfortable giving me 3 half dose treatments than none at all, so on Tuesday the 6th I had another treatment. I thought that I would be crying all night Monday night because I had to have a treatment but I was just the opposite. For some reason I was at peace and felt really good about my decision. But On Tues morning my niece Breanna took me to treatment and before I even left the house I was not feeling good. My stomach ached and I was mad for letting my nerves get the best of me. It would not go away and the nurses kept telling me to just relax and calm down. I was getting my treatment and usually my premeds really make me feel good. Kinda scary that I love my premeds but they are awesome. I get real goofy but they work. I was so nauseated and she came and gave me my fourth nausea med. Yup, I threw up right then. Right after that I felt really good. I was done with treatment at this time so i just told my good friend Mickey to take me home. I thought if I just got in bed and drank water I would feel better. The more water I drank the sicker I got. Then I noticed that my Ilyostomy had not filled all day. I was hurting at this time and then Nathan got home and ran to my neighbors Joey and told her "My Mom doesn't look so good." Of course he was scared again.
In the mean time Mike was going to be home in about 1/2 hour but I was hurting so bad I called Joey to take me to the emergency room. I knew I had a blockage before I even got there but of they have to run all their tests. In the process of my CAT Scan I threw up on their table so of course it took longer all the while I am feeling like I am dying. My neighbor Linda who works at the hospital told them to just bypass the CAT and get the tube in my nose (she has had a blockage before and knew what I was going through). So the dumb doctor walks in like he is so smart and says "Well you have a blockage" I just said "duuuuu" What you going to do about it. I really didnt say that but I said it in my mind. I was so mad at him but he was nice.
Finally with some pain killers and more nausea med I started to feel better. But......I had to go back to the hospital. Luckily my blockage was a short one. By the next afternoon I was starting to break the blockage. He came in and pulled my tube in my stomach and gave me clear liquids. They started to work and I told him if he would let me drink OJ I would break the blockage. Finally he said OK if you can have the OJ out in an hour I will let you go home. And the nurse brought me some OJ. I drank it and had her bring me anther one and in the hour I had it out. I still had to stay on liquids for 3 days but that is better than in the hospital. Once again my break and time off from chemo I had to go to the hospital again. It gets really old.
The good thing is my surgery is scheduled for FEB 6 at the Huntsman Center. I am so excited and scared for that surgery. I hope everything just flows this time. It just seems what could have gone wrong through all my treatments, did and I think it is time for a break. I have two treatments left and I am going to do great. I just know it. Love all you guys!
