June 22, 2008 - Red Bumps are Better

The doctor wanted to see me on Friday. The red bumps are an allergic reaction to the Taxol chemo treatment. He gave me a steroid shot, which didn't hurt at all. I was so happy for about 3 minutes. Then the pain started and didn't leave for 10 minutes. I didn't cry though. Yeah.... waaaa, waaa, waaa. (but it hurt. I swear.) Enough of that. He also gave me some prednizone, which I took on Saturday and Sunday, and the bumps are about 50% better. They don't itch anymore.




Here's a picture of the bumps (taken Friday night). If you click on the picture, it will enlarge, allowing you to see my white, freckly, red-bumpy legs. Someone give Vogue my phone number!
