I appreciate your help since patience is not a strong point with me. I am 12 days from my last treatment and it already feels like months. I have contacted my doctor again about the mouth ulcers. I had blood come out twice while doing my mouth rinse with salt and soda. The bleeding actually seemed to reduce the felt swelling. It just seems every day only baby steps my pain has come down some but these mouth sores bother me a lot. I made a difficult decision Saturday after the doctor told me Friday I have some weeks ahead before I can eat real food that was crushing news. Since then I have added this support group, milk shakes, protein powder, more creamed soups, jello, short walks and neck stretching techniques I found online. I was told I needed to increase thinking positive so this is what I have changed so far. I hope I will continue to improve but I miss food so very much since cooking is a major stress relief for me. I am trying to reduce my medicine slowly as instructed by dose and hours. I don't know what I would do if I could not work half days. I do not go out in crowds due to germs I don't need any more problems than I have. I am still angry that my body left me down especially since I eat healthy, exercise and seem to be in good shape for my age. I have always consumed cancer fighting foods and then I get this. Yes, losing my dog hurt a lot still brings tears to my eyes spent 14 grand trying everything to save him and failed at that to. First I lost my dog and now going through this health nightmare. I have constant communication with my care team to ask questions when I have concerns. I will never have patience like others have but trying the best I can during this extremely difficult time.
