Responding to Chemo
Posted on January 8th, 2011 by Merle
Hey everyone. Just a quick note to let you know that I am suffering through my first round of the new chemo regimen. If the number of adverse reactions is an indicator of how well the chemo is working, then my chemo is doing gang busters. I’ve been vomiting most of the days this week; something that I haven’t experienced previously. Anti-nausea medicine is sort of working, but not great. I guess on the upside, I am keeping weight off, but I would really rather not puke quite so much. I will be sure to discuss my reactions with Dr. Kauh to see if he has any suggestion.
Anyway, I just wanted to give you all an update. Hopefully, I’ll have better news for the next update.

Thanks for the update, Merle. I sincerely hope that this means the chemo is effective!!
Hi Merle, Just felt the need this morning to reach out to you. I am very happy to see you are still here and in the fight to save your life. I found your blog a long time ago and just happened upon it again this morning.
Sending you some good Karma and hopes and strong energy.
I hope this round of treatment will not take too much away from the quality of your life. Hang in there, I am rooting for you.
