Re: [VFB] Re: Thoughts and prayers needed
I have been on different chemo's for nearly 4 years and have been very lucky not to have any serious side effects just a bit of diaorehea and tiredness, the only drug that has caused lasting effects is called cisplatin ( think that's the spelling ) that has caused pins and needles in my fingers and feel like I have something stuck to the bottom of my foot. I do know of people though who have been very sick so it is just a case of try it and see if it works.

Re: [VFB] Re: Thoughts and prayers needed
Birdie: Thanks a lot for the info. If it comes to that I'll try it like you said, and if it has too many bad effects, I'll see if they can switch to something else. Hope it don't come to either.

[VFB] Re: Thoughts and prayers needed
Mike: Thanks a lot. I hope it;s the easy kind too, because I'm not sure I'd even go to get chemo. #1, it makes you sick as a dog and since having five hiatal hernia surgeries I cannot throw up, only dry heaves, and #2 that stuff (along with radiation) don't know a cancer cell from a good cell as far as I know. Guess I'll cross that bridge if/when I get to it as they say. Chuck On Friday, September 5, 2014 6:21:09 PM UTC-5, Chuck Alexander wrote: Folks: I need your thoughts and prayers please. I have had a “lesion” about 1/2” diameter on my shoulder for about four months now and went to the doc to get it checked today. I hadn’t mentioned it to him before as I was having all those IBS intestinal pains, and it would slip my mind as that pain was all I was worried about. Anyway, he took one look at it and said “that’s skin cancer and we need to take it off asap” He says that he won’t know the type till he cuts it out and sends a biopsy to the lab. He did say he didn’t think it has metastasized, but I don’t know how he knows that unless it’s from the 6 tubes of blood they drew today. I’ll probably get it taken off in about ten days or so as he has to be out of town on continuing education next week. He’s says “don’t worry about it” (easy for him to say, specially since I lost my favorite Uncle to skin cancer about 15 yrs ago). Nobody likes to hear the “C” word, but I’ll just cross whatever bridges I have to cross when and/or as I get to then. That’s all I can do right now. But, being a natural worrier and say I’m worried about it would be an understatement right about now. I’m sure that living in FL and being a welder in FL for 20+ yrs didn’t didn’t help, as well as going shirtless back when I had the body for it. I have several more that he says was “pre cancerous” (they are different looking from this one, but I’ll start with the “biggie” and let him cut em all off asap) that he’d take off at a later date, but wants to get the one off now. Thanks a lot. Chuck -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VFB Mail group.

Re: [VFB] Re: Thoughts and prayers needed
I have heard that the chemo meds have improved in that area, but we have had literally dozens of friends and relatives and they were all VERY sick. In addition, it may have prolonged their life, but their quality of those few extra months or so was horrible. If I come to that, I'll have to have a Lonng talk with the docs about side effects and meds that help lessen them for sure.
