Swelling & Radiation
Went in for my Radiation Treatment today. What is this - number 22 of the 28 total ?
The technicians said "How are you?"
And as usual, I tell them how I am.
My hand and fingers are still swollen. Remember when I showed them to you before Thanksgiving ?
Then I said "And my armpit looks like someone held a hot burning iron against it."
The nurse came in to look at me.
Then she measured my upper left arm, and compared it to my upper right arm.
My bottom left arm - to my bottom right arm.
My left wrist - to my right wrist.
In every measurement, my left arm is larger than the right.
It is swollen.
And then I showed her the big huge burn that was once my armpit.
As I went in for my radiation, she went in to her office, and called my doctor.
Wonders of wonders - she actually got a hold of him.
And even more wonders - he was coming to see me tomorrow afternoon.
