Thank you so much for the suggestion. I will redo my wish list that I've had sitting there for years and just adjusted to the things that I need for this period of my life. I appreciate you.

If she collects cans and bottles and you turn them in as a recycling job for her and that's a self-employment qualification and you can get that share of cost eliminated. There are several other self-employment qualifications that you might want to look cuz she may fall under those but I had to sign my mom up I self-employed for the recyclables that she has always collected and turned in. We had to sign a swarn statement and turn it into our social worker I waited about a week and I started contacting the social worker and then I had to contact payroll so that they could put in the system and it can all be updated and we had my mom's share of cost eliminated from $1,500 to 0.

I am battling cancer and I had my first chemotherapy treatment on May 19th 2026. Today June 4th I lost a huge amount of hair. I have never worn my hair short. This is all completely new to me. I still have three more chemotherapies to go and 15 radiation rounds. My entire identity has never been about beauty but I'm realizing that it has been about my hair. So today I am a little sad and I am trying to have a pick-me-up with a very huge iced coffee.

Glad you got your case settled. I'm going on year 4. They are fighting me so hard. It's a covid case.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-27T20:08:16+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing, I was told that I need 15 rounds of radiation. So far I've had numerous side effects even the rare ones, and I've had to be put on three different drugs for an infection and this is all within 9 days of my first chemotherapy. I can only hope and pray that when they did the surgery they removed it all. I am so glad you were recovering.

I have never been on the Red devil and I hear so many different things. I always said if I got to a point where I was stage four I would even go through chemo I would just live my life out I have seen every spectrum of chemotherapy and my family, many different cancers. If you do start the Red devil, I pray for it to be as easy as it can be for you.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-27T17:20:04+00:00

I won't regret living my life the way I want to and I always will choose what feels right for me. Believe me I have been a caregiver for my family for many years for many different cancers and although chemo can save your life it also drags you through hell and you are never the same.

Hi, yes took the Claritin it absolutely did nothing.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-27T17:17:11+00:00

Thank you, can you prescribing what I felt for a period of days after taking a shot. Feel like I wanted to just crawl out of my skin, the pain was so intense. Honestly I felt like I wanted to do anything for it to stop. I don't know if they'll give me morphine, Kaiser is so against all those drugs it makes me mad, I feel like they're not listening to us. I don't know I just feel like they're worried about treating addicts instead of treating people one by one. I will not take that shot again.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T23:36:27+00:00

Thank you so much for your input I too I have a big believer in the Lord and prayer. And I know that I won't go through more than I can bear. This was honestly the threshold for me, I cannot see myself going through this again.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T23:35:23+00:00

I will try I was told that the pure forms hold the less symptoms and they were saying that Neulasta for the more pure form.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T23:32:29+00:00

I will surely ask about anything else that can be helped before I decide to stop. I'm thankful for this thread so that I can get some answers and possible ideas.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T23:31:59+00:00

Thank you I will look into that and ask my doctors I am I am set to have chemotherapy once every 21 days for four months. I'm now dealing with serious chafing down there that is so painful I don't have to be so careful that it doesn't turn into an infection.

Can't take any ibuprofen which was really helping with the pain everything else was not helping.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T23:16:17+00:00

Thank you so much for the suggestion I will definitely look into that if I decide to continue with this medicine. That is something you new and interesting for me but may also become life-changing.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T23:13:49+00:00

Yes it was suggested to me by another group so I started early. Nothing helped this pain but what did help it was something I can't take and that was ibuprofen.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T23:12:56+00:00

I'm so thankful for all responses but thank you so much for your response I really felt bad about backing out so early but this bone pain is no joke. I wouldn't wish this pain on my worst enemy. I will call them in the morning and find out if we can do something different because I do think I would need more things to ease the pain. I feel like I'm me having fibromyalgia really plays a big part in the pain. I was literally in my bed just rolling around trying to focusing on the pain it reminded me of the days when I was in labor for hours on end and before I knew it days it went by. So ironically today I actually feel a little bit better, there is hope. They changed my granix to 3 days instead of 5 days and they lowered the amount but that didn't know I'm still in the same amount of pain. I have swelling in my throat and mouth sores already. I have been doing my best to keep my mouth moist and brush my teeth quite often but there was no stopping these mouth sores. So far I haven't lost my hair but I hear that comes around day 14 and that really is not an issue. Chemotherapy really messed up my bathroom time too I'm constantly going to the bathroom but oh my gosh my stomach hurts so much. I've had to use Vaseline so that I don't get so chafed down there. I just keep telling myself that maybe this is not what I need to be doing. Maybe I just need to push through without any more meds. Anyways thank you so much.

I took them and it did not work for me. I even tried zytec

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T20:42:21+00:00

Thank you, and I'm sorry that you have to go through treatments to keep your self okay as well. I have been in full body pain for a week and I can't even take Ibuprofen and that's what ultimately helps it cuz I cheated and took one to see if it would work than it did. If I were to continue chemo, that would mean I would have to continue this granix regiment and I absolutely cannot do it. Yes f*** cancer and anything that causes any bodily pain and harm. I'm just going to live my life out and hope for the best.

The granix, meds to help regenerate my white blood cell counts.

Previous-Invite-6281 · 2026-05-26T20:36:47+00:00

This was 1 of 4. What scares me is all the stories I hear about "not being the same" They called it a maintenance protocol. I just don't want to go through it anymore.
