Hey Jeff :)

I have had many episodes of severe pain, that are very difficult to describe, but they are so few, short and far between that I'd call it minor in nature. I hope you are as lucky as I in that regard.

Just wanted to check in and see how you're doing ?
Nope...not as lucky as you in the pain dept  We're (me and the dr's) thinking that the chemo (taxol/carbo combo) actually killed the A and C fibers in my feet....they are zero....nada....dead. You'd think they would just be quiet and leave me alone right ?
Working with my neuro on diff meds to try and find something that works. So far I think it's 'tapped' down the pain but I'm still taking 1/2 a vicodin every 3 or 4 hours and 1/2 a Xanax when it's really bad and puts me in the bed. My newest symptom is stinging between my toes....nice.
Let us know how you're doing.
Debi from Georgia
