Hi,
I have been doing really well both Monday and Tuesday. I really think it was the steroids that put me there, but I don't know. I will mention it to the MO.

I walked a good deal yesterday, and that was beneficial to me, in terms of attitude and getting the plumbing going. I am leaving early for my afternoon appointment today and plan to do the same thing.

I am eating ok right now, I am not on any pain meds, and was not last week either. At MD Anderson, they have booklets they give you that go over all the allowed and not allowed over the counter remedies, etc. Like the teacher I am (hate to mention that for you that might not like teachers, I used to think I would never be one, but my subject is music so a little different) I have tried to stick to that. Of course they don't mention every possible med or remedy one might try. I have an opportunity to ask about some of that today.

I appreciate everyone's concern and realize there will be other trying times like last weekend. You really did help me just knowing you were out there.

Thanks, friends.
Anne
