MORE DRAINAGE

I had two appointments this past Monday, 12/14. First I went to get my port flushed and then to get the fluid drained from my abdomen again. The port flush was surprisingly quick. It only took about 2 minutes. As for the fluid draining, the procedure is called paracentesis, they got 7 liters this time.
Someone had suggested to me that I weigh myself before and after that gets done. Well, I kind of did this week. They weighed me at the oncologist’s office and I got on a scale on the way out of the hospital after the paracentesis. The morning number was 241 and the afternoon was 227. This is a 14 pound difference. More importantly to me, it means that aside from the fluid, I’ve lost about 20 pounds since early November because I was weighing around 250 at my first visit to my current oncologist.

    I’m now taking a medical assistant course and find your diagnoses very painful. How do you cope with the pain? If you should ever need anyone to talk too or help you in any way let me know. Friend are forever no matter what. You are the sweetest real person at the round table Gods speed; I hope to hear from you.
