My latest news: OK, there is slow growing cancer, medium growing and fast growing. I have medium growing. The scans when I got the surgery showed they had grown since the last scans. On the 7th I go get body scans and x-rays of my hips and ribs cause that is where I have the most pain. Then on the 14th I go back to the oncologist for a bone shot, I think it is one that is like for osteoporosis cause it can be given in an IV or shot and I saw that on TV and I think it is the same thing. After that I am not sure, she will see the scans and x-rays by the 14th. She is also referring me to Cleveland for another opinion but I have to wait for them to call with that appointment. It is the same type I had in my lungs but this has moved to stage 4 cancer in the bones. I won't know what other treatment I will get till the 14th, as in doing chemo again though she said what they gave me apparently didn't work. There are different kinds of chemo drugs so I will find out about that later. All I can do now is keep you posted as we go. She gave me a prescription for Percocet when I told her my primary doctor had given me 60 of them to take every 4 hours as needed, she wrote her's the same way but I told her I am only taking one about every 5 days. She looked at me like I was crazy and said they didn't want me to be in pain and wait days to take the pills but I don't want to depend on them. Thank you in advance for all of your prayers as I know so many of you are sending them up for me. Good thoughts are very nice too, so thank you!

You are dealing with so much right now... hang in there and fight like the dickens.
Very best wishes to you and your family.

You toughed out the first go round with this and now there are better treatment options. Praying that a different chemo drug will destroy all the cancer this time. Hugs.

Yes I did and I plan to fight this time too, just the words stage 4 are scary.

I love an oncologist that looks at you like you're crazy for rationing pain medication. Do not suffer with pain, it will only make your body more stressed and you don't need that.
2 comments
I am only rationing them because I don't want to get hooked on them. How many people are told they have stage 4 cancer and their worry is getting hooked on pain pills? LOL!!
I would not worry one little bit about getting hooked on them. Make yourself comfortable. There is a difference between taking a handfull to get high and taking some to combat pain.

TAKE THE PAIN PILL, there is no need for you to hurt! You can fight harder if you ease the pain. I was in stage 4 bone cancer. that was 17 years ago. Our God heal through doctors, and miracles. through the blood of Jesus.
1 comment
Glad to hear it can be beaten. I was not aware that the pain isn't just hurt but taking a toll on the body also so I am going to take one pill a day and see how I do.

My prayers are with you. I was diagnosed with lung cancer in both my lungs 5 years ago and it came back last year. This time I couldn't take all my rounds of chemo. While it sounds bad, I believe God will watch over us. I pray for you and that you will have no more pain. God bless Betty

Dear Debra,
Glad to see you are fighting this disease. Every positive thought is being sent your way. I am so pleased to read that you are getting other opinions too. Make sure you don't have any pain and please take the pills when needed. I know you are one tough cookie from all the previous posts and will continue to pray for healing. May all the doctors and nurses who treat you also have healing hands.
In the meantime, I'm sending you a Healing Angel.
Love and blessings Chris

Thank you Chris, I am going to give it a fight for sure. My Mom keeps crying and that is hard on me, why am I the one who has to be tough and not break down? I realize she is scared, but damn, I am scared too!
Mom's don't like to see their kids sick, no matter how old. My daughter was born with heart problems and she's 32 and it still kills me when she is sick. Cancer is scary stuff. You feel so helpless and you are forced to trust doctors (which I'm not good at!) It's ok to cry, I did lots of it, not that it helps! Hand in there and feel the love from the Cuties!

Debra,did you have a chance to read the article?, I know for sure this lady could not walk and now she is 100% cure, I have three trees in my back yard, shame I can not send fruits to you, agriculture would not allow it It is an odd looking fruit, smells like old cheese, and it does not taste good, you have to mix it with honey, I have try it but the smell it too strong.... I have been thinking of drinking it I see many cancer around me, freinds come in regular basis and take a lot to their homes, the trees are always full of fruits.... If they can only smell good.... well I know this lady buys it from a Hawiiam company

Yes I did read about, right now I am looking at so many different things that I am not sure what I am going to do yet.

And, my daughter's doctor always said to hit the pain early and it will take less medicine to manage it. He said to think of pain as a fire, catch it early and it takes less water!

I am taking one a day for now and it helps quite a bit, getting in and out of the car seems to bring the most pain even after the pill kicks in. I'll adjust as needed.

Please try to have a good holiday with your family and I will say special prayers for your parents! {hugs}

I will enjoy the holidays with my family, I walk in and my Dad asks how I am feeling, I tell him "pretty good" he says I would say that no matter what!

I am sure tht evrything was fuzzy for you - that day - as time goes by and you go back to the doctor - you will get more info and you will know more of what they can and can't do - then you can let us know - if you want to - if you don't - that is fine, too - just know that we will keep you in our prayers - we know how strong you are and will be - even when you feel like you can't be - don't worry about it - let it come out - as well. Just know you have our shoulders, too and we will be here - when there isn't anyone at home or no one to talk to there.

Thank you Shirlene. I can't really "talk" about it without getting too emotional but I have to, my Mom constantly has tears in her eyes and on the phone I can hear it in her voice. If I break down I know they will so I have to be strong. Hubby sees the pain I am in and how I limp from it and said all he wants for Christmas is for me to not be in pain. Awwwww. I made a friend cry when I emailed her that!
why does this cut me off? he sees me in pain and how I limp and says all he wants for Christmas is for me not to be in pain. Aww, I emailed a friend that and made her cry!
I can only imagine - how your Mom must feel - how difficult it is for her to be strong for you - instead of you being strong for her - I wished I could be therer for you - so you could share your feelings and get the emotion out - I can say - I am with your husband - all I want for Christmas is for you not to be in pain, too.
I have only allowed myself to break down once and that was at the asthma doctor, the nurse hugged me and I fell apart. Nobody hugs me.
I always told people not to sympathize with me or I would fall apart! But my husband saw a lot of tears, and shed alot too when I was sick. It's ok to break down. My mom just chose not to talk about it like it wasn't happening.
Debra, My thoughts and prayers to Padre Pio are with you.Her's my hugs!Stella
Deb, I so wished I could give you a big ol HUG - I miss hugs more than anything else.

Thank you for your thoughts. I am taking the pain pills when I have to, I didn't need one 2 days ago but I took one yesterday and one today, we went to visit friends 2 hours away so 4 hours in the car today means I am taking another very shortly here.

Did you have your appt. at the Cleveland Clinic? I wasn't sure if that is where your tests are being done. I hear that is a very good place.

I have an appointment scheduled for the 20th, it will be my first time there and I have to pick up a CD in the radiology department of Aultman Hospital, that is where I go, it is here in Canton Ohio and I don't want treatment in Cleveland cause it is almost 2 hours to get there. I am hoping for no snow that day. The rest of my test results and scans have already been faxed to them. I just want to make sure I get the right treatment since we thought we had all the cancer taken care of 2 years ago.
from a couple of your postings - I see your appointment has changed from the 14th and now to the 20th. I will be praying for you dear one.
I live in rural MT. The town I had to get my radiation in was 220 miles from my home. I would go where the best treatment is. Sometimes the drs. can coordinate with each other and you can stay near home.
Oh, that is too far, what a pain trying to get healthy can be!

Hi Deb, I just happen to see this. I haven't been on in ages, but for some unknown reason I decided to check in. It must have been the Lord. :) I'm so sorry to hear all that has been going on. I pray you will not be overwhelmed by everything and give it to the Lord everyday. I have come to realize that satan is working double time on all Believers. He knows his time is coming to an end soon and is trying to discourage us. I hate that you are suffering with this and know (on a personal level) it can really get you down, but take heart, because you have many friends all around the world who are praying for you! How many other people can say that? Keep looking up. It might not be God's will for all to be healed, but it is definitely His will for all to make it to heaven. Will keep you in prayer and I will check in often to see how you are doing. Deb, I know people can become addicted to percocet, but you are in a situation where you will need to take something to help you with the pain. Don't do like I do and wait until you have the pain, then it takes forever for the meds to work. LOL...Instead of every four hours, maybe take one a day to see if that will relieve some of the stress from the pain. Love you my friend. May God's riches blessings be yours this season. I know this won't be much consolation right now, but when I start getting pain I do stop and think about how much Christ suffered for me and it thrills me to know it isn't just me but He suffered for everyone. Love you Deb... Terre

Thanks so much. I have started taking one a day but needed 2 Saturday and looks like I will need at least 2 today, had to take one at 6 a.m. but I think I pulled a muscle in my back hanging wreaths out my front windows last night. I know I have a huge number of prayers going up for me. Will start a new post when I get the total results hopefully Wednesday.
number of people praying for me. I actually had to take a 3rd pain pill just a little bit ago. My ribs are what hurt the worst and I can't wait till Wednesday so I can find out the details.

What a sweet pic of the little ones! Thank you so much Bettina. Ribs still hurting even with a pain pill, yesterday I had to take 3 it was such a bad day, only 1 today. I see the doctor tomorrow.
That's funny, I said I had a bad day and took 3 pain pills, lol, I am up to 8 plus the Lidocaine patches!
I really hate cancer. Sorry for your pain.

leenova 54 - you are such a precious person - I didn't know when you were sending me words of encouragement about my poor brother's cancer - that you were yourself fighting the same battle. You are surely a special person. Thank you for all your concern for us during those trying days - love - Patricia -missqueenbee47

I only hope that anything I said helped. I don't know where my battle will lead, I will be getting tests and scans the beginning of May 2012 and then trying a 3rd kind of chemo mix and hoping for remission. It is in my bones and that is not good. It is in my skull but only the bone, not the brain though I have a brain tumor that they are watching also. I fight hard and tough so I plan to be here longer than the time the doctor has set for me. Hugs and hang in there, Debra
you were a big encouragement to me - I hope I can be one to you - you are in our prayers - Patricia
Thank you Patricia!

Dear Debra, SOrry to hear about your ordeal and bad news. About the pain killers and dependancy: I had been at the Pain Clinic for severe pain, and was put onto slow release Morphine. Prof said, that as long as the pain was real, the body needs to be painfree and it should be used in accordance to the prescription. Therefore it will not be addictive. He was right. When my painlevels stabilised, I was able to let go of the substance without any after effects. Please reconsider so that you can have more quality of life without pain. Love, Susie.

This is a very old post, lots of changes over the time, will post new on May 9th, 2012. I use a pain patch and now and then need a pill.
I am happy that you are on paincontrol. I also used patches for a long time. Also needed pain tablet with it, but it worked well. May God hold you in His loving Hands. Lovies.
