I still find it necessary to get "drugged up" in the morning in order to be able to drink a liter of water and to get my 1st Skandi shake down. What was the experience of others in working towards getting off of the narcotics?
Also, I am finding myself looking longingly at some of my family members dinners but I know it it to soon to start experimenting with real food. What do you guys think?
I am feeling better day by day. My PET CT is scheduled for 8/4/08. I feel like that is the next big thing to be praying for- a clean PET CT post treatment.
I am also starting to have feelings like I want to get back to work but know that I can't with the narcotics and eating issues.
Does anyone have a comment on any of my list of issues/concerns. Would love to hear about your experiences.
Have a great day!
Frank
