    Check it out.

    We’ll all be hoping! :)

    Awww, you’re all so sweet! Thanks so much for all the good wishes (and to Kris for turning down the vibe-intensifier.)

    I’m telling myself it’s just a stuck piece of crud in my liver… possible??

    Hugs to everyone,

    Kristin

    Kristin,
    That itching…that is just you receiving all the good vibes and thoughts from Sweden. I will try to turn it down a notch to make you more comfortable. Good wishes (not vibes, I learned my lesson :) ) for the ct scan.

    Hi Kristin,

    Sarna would have been my suggestion also. Works great for most people. Yes Kristin, we do all understand. Thinking of you and hoping for the best results on the CT Scan.

    Love & Hugs,
    Darla

    Kristin, when I saw Itchy, itchy, itchy, you knew just what I would say. SO glad it helps. B.R. at 2.6 I believe is still in the norm. If I recall 5 is HIGH. But I think you certainly did the right thing to call the doc when you combine that and the itching. Just because its almost Spring you do not have to turn into a Jonquil! Best of luck.

    Kristin,

    Sarna lotion is excellent. It worked wonders for my Mom. Also Aveeno oatmeal bath is good.

    As to the lab tests: Here is a link I use: http://www.labtestsonline.org/

    Hope it helps and that the itchies go away!

    Hugs,
    Pam

    Suddenly I’m itching like mad, nauseated and dropping weight like crazy, and we all know what that probably means… right?

    I called my oncologist’s office yesterday and they sent me to get my bili tested, (it’s 2.6– is that really bad?) and next off is a CT scan. :(

    On the good side, I sent my husband out for some Sarna lotion (THANKS Lainy!) and it feels deliciously cold.

    Just thought I would post here because everyone understands.

    Thanks!

    Kristin
