Update

This week has been ok so far.  I was allowed to have my drainage tubes removed...thank goodness...now I don't look so much like an alien.  I am still very sore, especially on the left side where they removed lymph nodes.  My hair is continuing to grow :).  I had some dizzy spells (vertigo) Tuesday and Wednesday.  I only get them when I change positions (sitting or lying down to a standing position or standing to a lying down position, or bending over).  Therefore, my oncologist thinks it is best that they do a brain scan just to make sure there are no growths on the brain or skull.  A little scary, but they didn't seem too concerned because I have not had vision changes or headaches.  I should find out today when my scan is...hopefully this afternoon or tomorrow.  I am not too worried since the spells seemed to have stopped.  I think it is caffeine withdrawl because I did not drink any for several days.  Today I had some...and what do you know...no dizziness.

Prayers please...thanks!!
