Saturday June 24

Well, I think almost everyone knows this but here it goes anyway. Upper right lung is getting good air but lower right lung is partially collapsed with fluid surrounding it. The adrenal gland mass grew slightly 1/4 inch, which means chemo didn't really work so well the first round. The radiation helped with the lung though. Mom is on a new chemo which is 4 hours one week then 1 hour the next week with the following week off. This will be her new schedule to the next scan I guess. Mom is not tolerating the chemo very well. Yesterday she ate 2 crackers and barely kept them down.When we returned to the chemo suite for her shot they gave her medicine that was supposed to be better than what she had for nausea but it doesn't seem to be working yet. She is pretty tired and weak so if you call please keep that in mind.
