I'm borderline.

I went for radiation today and asked to see a doctor while I was there.
We are supposed to get terrible weather in the next couple days. I figured if I'm going to have to sit out a week, this would be the perfect one for me. Driving on snow and ice terrifies me.

My doctor wasn't in yet, so I saw one of her partners. He said that my skin was borderline.
He thought I should continue with treatment for now and he would have me see Dr. Sullivan tomorrow to make sure she agrees.

My blisters are gross. I have tiny ones all around the radiated area and the ones on my incision are green and oozy.
I have no idea what my skin is going to look like at the end of this.
Hopefully, my plastic surgeon will still be able to work his magic.

My back/neck/shoulder pain hasn't gotten any better despite pain killers and numerous trips to the chiropractor over the past two weeks. The chiro doesn't think adjustments are helping. :(
I am going to see my PCP tonight to possibly get a referral to a Orthopedic Surgeon.
I hope this is nothing major. I'm a little nervous.

IT just like your daughter wish , that how I wish theres a clearer cure with all the cancers all over the world.
