Experience Details
Date Entered at Shared Experience: 03/13/2002
Cancer Type: UTERINE
Diagnosis: It started out as just endometral yet it as moved to my stomach and now they dont know what is going to happen.. They said if chemo doesn't work this time then I will have to do it again. But I had to ask myself why would I want to go through this again??? I can only wait. The dr diagnosis is very drifferent from mine, see I feel that The chemo will work and that will be that.. However
she says that Chemo should be moved from once a week to two.. Oh my..
Chemo Drugs: I am on IV Adrimaycin and flurouracil.. It lasts for 2 hours and I really dont feel anything for about one hour afetr it is over. I have lost my hair on my head and havn't had to shave. I have alot of trouble eatting they want me to eat 6 small meals aday I think "Get real" it is all I can do to get one down.
Also if you are on the Adrimaycin nad your pee looks like the raimbow it is normal..
Treatment: They want me to do chemo for 7 more weeks. Along with the meds..
Quality of Life: I am ok bald, tried, sick alot but ok..
