I apologize for not being on with updates lately. I've had trouble getting on the site; wrong password, but can't seen to type fast enough before screen changes. My work computer is the only one I can access this site.
Anyway... I had my surgery 5/13 for a full hysterectomy. Everything went better than expected. No lymph nodes had to be removed!! Tumors had shrank from larger than a golf ball (3) to the size of jelly beans. My blood work from 5/30, prior to my 5th chemo, had my CA 125 at 83. My blood work from 6/20 it's at 22!!! The doctor confirmed that I will have my final round of chemo 7/11/14. I am so looking forward to being a chemo grad!!

Ii hope chemo is going well for you and that you're not having to deal with too many side effects. Be sure to stay well-hydrated while you're having chemo. I remember one time when I didn't feel well at all after chemo. I was dehydrated, and when I went back to the infusion center, they rehydrated me, and I felt better almost immediately. Diane

Is anyone here allergic to Sulfa that is currently taking Diamox? I have been diagnosed with IH now for almost 2 years. I am allergic to Sulfa drugs meaning that my throat will swell up so my Neurologist put me on Topamax.
