Dr. Evil visit yesterday. I think someone said something to him regarding the appointment I had with the other doc 2 weeks ago and why it’s taken so long, or he’s about as over all this as I am, because he couldn’t get out of my appointment fast enough….and the demon nurse wasn’t in the room this time. See…I’m finally making friends…

There was 7ccs of fluid on my right side.  Okay fine, whatever. It’s the not important side. But because of it I still have to go back next week and who knows how long until that is resolved.   Whatever.  The good news is the left side…the all important side was cleared for PT.  So I get the referral to start PT, go down to Radiology to let them know what the deal is and exactly when I can call them to get that ball rolling.  Then they sent me down to the PT office where by some wonderful stroke of luck they had an opening on Thursday of this week. Hopefully this will go by pretty quickly.

As soon as I can raise my left arm over my head I can start radiation.  So hopefully that won’t take too long. I’m just thrilled with some sort of progress.  Sitting doing nothing for 9 weeks is nothing short of a slow torture.

But I have a bazillion questions to ask before we get into all this radiation stuff. I’m starting to get to that point where I send messages over to my oncologist weekly about stuff. I guess in the beginning because I saw everyone on pretty much a weekly basis it was different. And even though I see Dr. Evil every week he never answers any questions….he just talks in circles acting like what he’s saying means anything to us.

So I now feel like I can get moving on some other things…or at least start planning on moving on some other things.  I have been walking and doing lower body exercises. I still don’t have my full energy back yet.  So trying to balance the pushing it and taking it easy.

I do want to make an appointment with the nutritionist since the last time I met with them was when I first started Chemo.
