Last of the Chemo

Message 83 of 217

Well, last week ( Nov.19, 2009 ) was my final day of six sessions ( 3 days each ) of Chemo therapy. Now it is up to the doctors to decide what is next. I am scheduled for a CT Scan and an MRI between now and December. I was given 7 doses of Filgrastim to take over the next 7 days. I will be taking the dose early in the morning in case there is pain so as not to have it interrupt my sleep at night. There is nothing worse than trying to sleep with pain.
I have been feeling OK except for one or two flair ups of pain. In fact I have been with an excellent appetite and have gained weight which has put me back to my original pre-hospitalization weight. Does anyone know what the procedure is after the chemo? Now comes the waiting game!!!
