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.

Muga scan

Today I had my Muga scan. It is to check how the heart pumps (I think). Chemo can have an effect on this. 2 needles and a 20 minute scan and it was done. Then on to lab work. Needle number 3. Then on to Pre-admission clinic to do all the forms for surgery on Friday. Yet more lab work and needle number 4. My poor arm has a huge bruise.

That is something we are also looking into. I seem to be very bruisable lately. My feet and legs are full of bruises. Some of the tests they do on my blood will see if I am low in something or if my blood is low in clotting and other stuff like that. I am taking some alphafa (sp?) pills for extra vitamin K and some extra vitamin C.

That's all for now.

I will find out tomorrow at 3 pm what time surgery is on Friday afternoon.

Love Carolin
