Jooolz…No, you are not silly. Unfortunately mistakes do happen. Stay on top of things and possibly have someone assist you with this. Take notes of all conversations, the date, the name of the person and phone numbers.
Be prepared to encounter similar occasions.
All my best wishes,
MarionJoolz, sadly its the way so much rolls today. No one wants to do their job and service is out the window! I think a lot of office staff no longer feels pride in what they do. It’s a good thing we know how to tell them!
If this is a harbinger of how things are going to go… the Study Coordinator called me today and said she can’t get my CT results because they weren’t ordered by an on-staff physician. Oh, I said, it was most certainly was!
Am I just being silly? Is this just a fluke or the way things are going to be?
Joolz….Ha, let’s work on it; a super yummy barium.
My fingers are crossed for a super CT result.
All my best wishes,
MarionIf anyone can change the formula for barium and make it palatable, they’d make a mint.
So the CT scan was done today. No biggie except for the barium. I imagine I’ll hear results from this and my blood tests in a few days.
Joolz…Ugghh…I hear you. Unfortunately, barium has never been touted to be of culinary value. Looking at the positive though, your next meal will be a most pleasurable experience.
Good luck, tomorrow. You are more than halfway there.
All my best wishes,

All my best wishes,
MarionI looked it up on the Net and found a lot of information already. I keep forgetting this board has a search function!
Joolz- I took Xeloda for 5 months while waiting for transplant. I took 8 pills twice a day can’t remember mg. I had no major side effects. Drug company nurse called once a week to check on me.Good luck.

who will be injecting the radioactive beads into me. He came across as competent but not arrogant. If I’m accepted into the study (still waiting on test results and I still have to get a CT scan) he’ll do two takes. The first is a trial run and the second is the real thing.
This is the chemo drug I’ll be taking:

If all goes well, the trial run will be on either April 1 or 4 and the actual procedure on April 14.
I saw a scan from my January MRI. No wonder I have pain. Two of the liver tumors are huge and press against my abdomen. I saw a lot of little tumors too.
