No, everything is not okay. And I don't really know what's wrong. I go to the doctor today for chemo but I'm not supposed to see him. But I'm going to ask to be seen anyway. Something is definitely wrong.

I have incredibly swollen eyes. I can push lightly on the puffiness below my eyes and it stays pushed in. That tells me that's fluid. But why the build up? I also have a lump on my neck that swells and it causes the vein over top of it to "pop" out. It is real tender to touch. I can't sleep if I lay on that side and it puts any pressure on it. This morning that side of my neck is even more swollen. There is also discomfort in both of my arms.

A couple of weeks ago, I showed my nurse the neck and eye swelling problems. She said to look for subtle changes, it may be the cancer itself causing fluid to build up in my chest. Well... I'd say these are more than subtle changes.

So, once I find out what's going on... I'll post it.

I will be going for a CT scan tomorrow morning early. I probably would have had it today but I have to pre-medicate with anti-allergy drugs tonight and tomorrow morning. The last time I had dye with a CT scan I broke out in a rash... allergic to it. I had to have a shot of Benadryl for it to go away and they wouldn't let me drive.

My doctor is pretty certain he knows what it is but I don't want to say until I know for sure. After I have the CT scan, I will take the films upstairs to him so he can review them. Possibly, most likely, not a good scenerio if it's what he thinks it is.

Although my blood counts were good, I didn't get chemo today. He doesn't want to give me chemo again until this "problem" is resolved.

Well, I can't say I'm happy about the tone of your last message. I hope the results of the scan are better than expected. You know I'll be thinking of you.

Hi Stacy, I was like Cliff--I have been missing your posts. I didn't know if you had replaced them with emails as I received a few from you. I too, check the site for your postings. I am sorry that you are having problems with your eyes and arms. Jack and I are sending our love and prayers for you tomorrow as you have the CT scan. Our hearts ache for you when you are not felling well. We pray for God's hands on you and your doctor tomorrow. Love and prayers, Bonnie

I really appreciate your prayers, Bonnie. I will especially need them if this CT scan comes back with the results we are expecting.

I have to admit I'm a bit nervous about all this. I don't want to hear what I think I'll be hearing and I really don't want to go through how they would possibly resolve the problem.

I'm supposed to take my last CT scans with me tomorrow then take copies of the new ones up to my doctor after the scan. I should know what's going on tomorrow. I'll post what I find out then.

Well, needless to say I'm not too happy about the tone of your messages. I hope the scan results are better than expected, and the problem isn't as serious as you expect. You know I'll be thinking of you.

Did you check out the video of Tyler and Sneakers?

Yes, I watched it! I been to your house in a long time, so I haven't seen the pups in quite a while. I guess Tyler is still Tyler, and always will be! I remember Tyler as the wild one, Zoie as the obsessive one, and Chessie as the one who was perfectly content to sit quietly on my lap.

Needless to say, I'm waiting nervously to hear about today's results.

It is Saturday morning Stacy. I just prayed for you. I keep thinking of you and praying for you. I will wait for your post about the scan and pray it is not as serious as you think. Bonnie
