I never really know what's going on. I went to the oncologist's office today thinking that I would start the new chemo, but the doctor said he'd like to do another CT scan first and if things look better or the same, then he'd keep me on the old chemo, and it is possible that I could even take pills instead of the dreaded pump! Man, I got excited about that, but then he said "Don't get your hopes up". How could I NOT get my hopes up?I'm going to have the CT scans done Wednesday. Here's a picture of the stuff I have to drink before the scans. Barium Sulfate tastes like... umm... Barium Sulfate. I don't care if they call it a Berry Smoothie. If you ever have to drink it, drink it cold. It's better that way.
So the fruit on the label is, what? misleading? Who'd a thought.... good luck.
ReplyDeleteThat is very nice, get-your-hope-up kind of news! I like it. Can you mix the BS with anything to make it more palatable? Like a real smoothie?
ReplyDeleteI've had that stuff! Not so bad...I really like the idea of just taking pills for your chemo...hope that works out. LOL :)
ReplyDeleteget those hopes up as high as they can soar. i'm with you uncle!
