Carolin's New Hobby

The lovely summer of 2004 came to an abrupt end when Carolin was diagnosed with cancer. What follows are the random thoughts and experiences of the Camerons as Carolin fights back.

Well she said it wasn't just water in my ears

I saw my oncologist today. I told her my symptoms - dizzy, headaches that last for days, fatigue but most importantly my lack of balance. She did 3 tests of my balance. The last test - walking with one foot directly in front of the other (heel to toe) I could not do without falling over. She said it is not due to the Arimidex, or Chinese medicine, and has given me some corticosteroid pills for 4 days (anti-inflamatory).

So we know what it ISN'T from. What IS it from? I will have to have a CAT scan of my head in the next two days. We are suppose to go to Kelowna on Friday but I will not get the test results for a week after that. That doesn't seem like a good recipe for a restful vacation. I don't know how to keep my mind off whats in my mind. Just my luck not to be an alcoholic.

I'll keep you posted as things progess.

Love Carolin
