Event News
Blood Clot
At MD Anderson today with Garrick to see Cardiovascular Surgeon. After discussing the clot busting procedure with the doctor we all decided I am going to try to manage the pain for the next 2 weeks and hope for improvements. The procedure risks are bleeding in the brain and you also have to stay in the ICU after the procedure. If things do not get better we discussed moving the location of my port. My clot goes from about 3-4 inches above my elbow area to all the way to the port which is in my right upper chest area. Hoping after another few weeks of my daily blood thinner injections it will begin to improve. We are also adding Celebrex back in and I am hoping it will help with the inflammation. ~...
Deep Vein Thrombosis
I was called in this morning to MD Anderson to evaluate my port area after my chest X-ray from Wednesday came back normal. I have been doing my daily Fragmen injections for almost 2 weeks and things seemed like they were getting better. This past Sunday I started having pain which progressed into severe pain. I can barely put a shirt on because it hurts to move. Pain medication helps a little, but it is still very painful to move my right arm and shoulder area. The pain is in my port area, underarm, right upper back and right shoulder and a little below. I have tenderness in my right lower neck as well, swelling and bulging veins. It sounds bad, but as long as I don’t move around too much I am doing okay :). After my assessment today, I am being referred to a Vascular surgeon. They are going to do a procedure called Thrombolysis also known as clot-busting. I meet with the specialist on Tuesday at MD Anderson. I am a little nervous about the procedure, but am happy to know this will likely improve my condition....
Thanksgiving Day
Just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone that has supported me & Jamie’s Hope over the last few months. I am so blessed to have the family and friends (new & old!) that have stepped up to help in so many ways. Once again friends and family stepped up today and did all the hard work. My only contribution was our house, decorations (which I delegated), and I plugged in the food warming trays …..also cheered on the Texans from the couch!!!!! I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving & remember to cherish those who cherish you!...
Blood Clot Confirmed / ER
Pictures above all show blue veins popping out that appeared on my right arm and this arm is more swollen. Large blood clot over 3 of my large veins around my port area. This is my arm on the other side. As you can see my veins are not seen here and this arm is smaller. Me in ER in my UGG snow boots today. After ultrasounds finding was sent to ER, but was released and got home about an hour ago. Ultrasound today New medication added. I have to give myself an injection everyday for the next 6 months Also I will be seeing a hematologist next...
Chemo / Possible Blood Clot
Chemo day 1 of 3rd cycle yesterday. Pain in right arm, possible blood clot and not able to use my port. 1 Iv miss yesterday (small blueish swollen spot), had to use baby needle and got it near the wrist. Chemo took a little longer since they had to slow the drip. One of the meds burns the veins when it goes in when using veins in my arm and not the port. However, got out in time to make it to the Paul McCartney concert with Michael and...

After Biopsy Updates
Pictures from recovery room and leaving after the biopsy. My wheel chair driver was speeding and driving crazy, had me laughing I was sedated (completely out) for the procedure with propofol. Woke up starving, had a snack in the recovery area to hold me over. Discovered a bandage in my butt crack (lol), they must have went in sideways with the needle to get access to the tumor on my right side. Had one of my favorites the snapper at Churrasco’s on the way home!! Got home and went to sleep immediately and just woke up thinking it was the morning. Hips are a little sore when I just got up, but not too bad. Also, white blood cell count was a little low and had to get a Neupogen shot this morning. Met an awesome couple today in the waiting area in Targeted Therapy, she originally had breast cancer in 1992 and in 2005 it came back with a vengeance in her bones and many other locations. She exhausted all standard treatments and was only supposed to live for 2-3 years with her diagnosis. She has been on a trial for 18 weeks in Targeted Therapy on one of the same chemo therapies that I am on, she is bald like me and doesn’t wear hats or wigs She could barely walk, but was soooo positive. Her husband said he would catch her with her walker vacuuming the house. Love meeting people like this!! Going back to bed, lots of work to do tomorrow!!!...

PET Scan Results, IV, Etc….
Veins were running away from the IV on Monday, still bruised this morning. I went to the iv specialty area this time to get it started, spent 20 minutes laying down, hyperventilating and almost blacking out when the IV did not want to go in. Next time i will make sure to take something to knock me out (aka xanex). Thank god for ports!!! Unfortunately they cannot use a port for a PET scan, but luckily those don’t happen too often. PET scan indicated stable disease, which is the same results from my last one. Was really hoping to see a little reduction in size since this was the first full cycle I completed without any cancellations. The 1st cycle had a lot of cancellations due to low white blood cell counts. After a pattern was noticed, Neupogen shots (that I give myself at home) were added to my protocol 3 days following chemo, so the 2nd cycle was a lot more intense. Regardless, stable is good Side Effects / symptoms : Neuropathy (can’t feel fingers and toes) Daily nosebleeds (when I blow my nose) Body temperature is completely off, waking up several times in the night sweating and drenched and then freezing cold later (annoying) Skin: major breakouts Hair: gone Stomach: behaving at the moment Hip Pain: about the same -manageable Congestion/head: sounds like water is trapped in my ear and at times I can’t hear out of my left hear (a problem I have had since radiation to head and neck years ago). Sounds like a lot, but it’s really not that bad. It could be a...
