Sick :(

Mom has a cold :( GET WELL SOON!!

Tests...

This week mom has lots of tests and appointments to make sure she is well and ready to return to work. She thought she would be able to go back next week but her doctors are ordering a few more things for her to do before she does. She will have blood work done to check her liver, heart, kidneys, etc. and also to check her cholesterol, iron and other levels. It has been 6 months so she will have another PET scan to monitor her cancer and make sure it has not returned. She will have an appointment with Dr. LeBranche to check on her infection and to monitor the progress of her hysterechtomy. She has been experiencing hot flashes which they will also talk about her options for that. Since she had breast cancer, there are not many options that do not involve hormones. The doctors do not want her on hormones because they may lead to a reoccurance of the cancer.

Mom has been doing really good, she is just waiting to hear that everything looks good so she can finally go back to her normal schedule. Hopefully soon Mom!
