Today I was back at the Cancer Clinic to have my 10th Herceptin infusion. I ran into Colleen, who had had her 4th radiation appointment and was waiting to see her surgeon. She was able to hang out with me for my infusion; it was nice to have her company. This picture was taken at the Pink Party when we were both follicly challenged.
I’ve been keeping a hot flash diary this week as part of my follow-up appointment for the hot flash clinic on the 16th. So far I’m having 7 or 8 a day which is better than my experience before taking the Effexor. I’ve also noticed that the hot flashes aren’t as intense as they were before the Effexor.
Tonight I was at the running clinic where we moved up to 7 and 1’s ( 3 sets of 7 minutes of running followed by 1 minute of walking). I was amazed at how well I felt after the run. I guess doing my ‘homework’ paid off.
Off to bed now,
me

Dear Kim: Great to see that you're keeping up the good work! As you may (or probably not know), I've taken effexor at one point when trying to get the proper medication for my mood disorder (often called...DeMara/Angas disorder by me!). It wasn't correct for me, but I do realize that it is used for a variety of uses...not just mood. Just like Prozak is prescribed (way too much, in my opinion, as a "Happy" pill.
Hope you had a great Christmas/New Year, and that all good things happen for all of you guys in 2007!
Lots of love....Steve's Uncle David
