Re: Chemo cancelled for now

[Guest guest]

Hi, Jane. Sorry your chemo was cancelled and the pain you are having with the

duodenum tumor. Praying everything gets checked out and gets back to schedule.

wanted to use Avastin. I take coumadin plus the tumor in my duodenum

was bleeding last year so she is concerned. I was to start tomorrow

but the DRs. office called and said the Dr. wants me to see my

gastroenterologist before we start anything else. Chemo is cancelled

and I have an appt at the GI dr tomorrow. The nurse said she thought

that I would be scheduled for an endoscopy to check out that tumor. I

am hoping we can do this quickly as the tumor is causing pain and I

want to do something for it asap. This is a never ending battle, it

is always something happening.

I saw the GI Dr. today and he scheduled me for an upper GI endoscopy

next Tuesday. This will be good since then we can see just what is

going on inside there. One good thing is that I am not getting a

colonoscopy too so I do not have to do that prep! WooHoo!
