- Herceptin treatment, Procrit and Zometa given.
- All seemed to be good with blood work - red blood cell count even went up!
- Dr. Sipahi said he doesn't argue with "Chicago (doctors)" and okay with treatments.
- Gina told him about bone pain in right leg so Dr. Sipahi ordered an X-Ray for the leg.
- The X-Ray came back okay - nothing appeared to be out of the ordinary. Good News! Why the pain then?!?
- We asked Dr. Sipahi about Gina not taking Coumadin anymore and he did not think she was still taking it, so said to try stop taking it
- Gina is also taking Iron supplements every other day - to help with swelling of hands and feet from Xeloda side effects. Very PaInFuL for Gina and she keeps them lotioned up constantly.

I do believe! There is so many good things that have come out of all this - having such great friends is on top of the list...Bob and I say our daily prayers thanking God for all the great people he has put in our lives!
Maureen,
Thank you for making sure my lil boy gets across that busy street (with 2 school bags across his chest - we had to distribute the weight so he wouldn't tip over!)
I bet Brett is great at cross country - he has had a lot of practice, running from all the girls chasing him...but booty shorts - I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM!
Love and Hugs! Gina :)
