We went straight home from MMC on Sunday. I've learned, it's not worth trying to squeeze in any errands during these trips. Anne always ends up paying the price. All this riding is hard on her.
On getting home Anne sat and said, 'I'm exhausted'. Next thing I knew she was up trying to cut sweet potatoes, asparagus, and cut a game hen in half. I chipped in and we got everything cut and covered in olive oil and some salt, spread them on a foil covered baking sheet along with the 2 game hen halves. We baked it 1 hour at 350 degrees. It came out great.
Thing is, Anne hasn't done anything like that since before last Monday's ERCP. She was back in her element, and feeling well enough to do stuff, or so it seemed. It seemed good. Problem is, she req'd a pain pill afterwards, afterall, we are on a roller coaster for sure.
We really didn't pay attention to the Pat's game Sunday afternoon because we had Dana for company. That was a treat.
Then, I really enjoyed the meal, while Anne had just a little bit of it. As I've said, the good Lord didn't take her appetite when he gave her the cancer. Almost wish he had. Yes, she paid the price for having eaten.
Anne had a better evening than usual, sleeping and watching a little TV.
Low and behold, she had a lousy night in bed with a sour stomach bothering her overnight. She was sick on getting up in the morning too. Dry heaves, nausea, etc. She did ask for a piece of toast and jelly. That was followed by diareah and she was just ill in the morning.
With that, we made arrangements and now we're back at MCCM in Scarborough noon Monday, getting anti-nausea meds and hydration. We spoke with oncologist Julie, and she wants to prescribe an anti-nausea med to replace the compazine. It will be Phenergan (promethazine), Yes, it rings a bell. Keep you're fingers crossed.
Hydration appointments have been made for every morning this week with the exception of Friday when we go to MMC for hernia repair surgery.
More later friends. Pray for the best for Anne. It really helps. Thanks for being there.
