better day

I really want to thank you guys for you support. The next 6 months is going to be really tough and I am glad you guys are here to talk/type to.




Things were a lot calmer yesterday. I can still tell that there is some anxiety for some reason (you never know what might set off PTSD anxiety) but he was much more mature then the previous day. I think there may be some stuff going on where he works because he wants me to help him fill out an online resume. No biggy, I can handle that as long as he stays calm. I may slip him half of Dexters Xanax in his diet coke, ;)



I ate a lot of sodium the last two days and my fingers are showing it. My poor little ring didn't want to go over my knuckle today. I skipped my morning root beer and am trying to get as much water as my stomach can handle. I also took one of the water pills my surgeon gave me a long time ago. That might not have been the smartest idea since I am sitting in the pre-chemo class with my parents this afternoon.  The biggest accomplishment is I haven't gotten stuck or thrown up this week!!  I really hope that I don't have to have fluid removed from my band.  If I can keep the food down until my appointment Aug 6 I won't even bring it up.  Of course a lot of it will also depend on my non-bloat w.



Speaking of the chemo class. I have a list of questions two pages long with everything I can think of:

Will chemo have an impact on dental health? Name of drugs and side effects? When are the side effects not normal, when should the doctor be called?

If you guys can think of anything else please let me know. They are going to love me



I am meeting my sister for lunch before the class so she can let me know if she has any questions she wants answered. Of course we are going to Mexican again. Seriously, I can eat it everyday but I am going to have to detox from the sodium (and margaritas) of have inhaled the last three days!!



Two more days until I see my pictures and the start of the Olympics!!!
