Prostate Cancer

Good day today. Hives about the same. Managed to work on the computer for 3/4 of the day today. Have some interesting new (healing?) pains. Nothing bad. Praying this catheter can come out Monday! No matter what happens God is in control Phil 4:13

Pretty good day today Hives are clearing up. Called radiologist to let them know I had allergic reaction to cystogram on Monday and was scheduled for another one this Monday. They told me to have my doctor premedicate me. Called doctor’s office and was told to take Benadryl the day […]

Okay day today. Didn’t sleep well last night with all the thunderstorms. Had a bit of a neck ache today. Hope the injection I had in my neck back on April 9 isn’t wearing off already. Hives/rash are still there, spreading a little, but thinning out as well. Taking Benadryl […]
