It is never the big things. The big things are easy. It is the piddling little things that get you down. So the rash. The prednisone didn't help--and the rash popped up other places and hurt. Tuesday I saw my primary care, who referred me to a dermatologist. Saw the dermatologist on Wednesday. She pronounced it (them) an infection, took a culture of one of the open wounds, and gave me a prescription for antibiotics and an ointment, and made an appointment for a two week follow up. After two days of the antibiotic, things are looking better.
I was a very good girl and reported on everything to Dr. Chee (the oncologist). She pushed out my chemo for a week.
So that's where we are. Right now I'm having a strange pain that may be gall bladder. Of course, it is nearly ten at night, so there isn't much to do about it now. I've had these pains before--it will go away if I am a good girl and sit quietly. I'll probably forget about it before I talk to Dr. Chee again. Still, it is annoying while it's going on. Oh, and my belly button is still draining--and yes, I told that to Dr. Chee. We're hoping the antibiotic takes care of that too.
Here's to better days.

Sounds like a crappy, rashy week for you, there are fires all over Santa Barbara and I found out I need to come up with 34K for my house in a year. Good week for the family.
