Aches, rashes

Lately I've started to feel some shoulder, hip, back and even knee aches and small headaches. This got me worried so I called Stanford and asked my Onc about getting a PET scan.  I've only had one PET scan done since the beginning of my diagnosis of this year in Feb so it's a good idea to get an update on the effectiveness of my Tarceva treatment. I've beenTarveva for about little over 3 months now, while hoping that it does a miracle cure to zap and shrink the cancer tumors away, I'm wondering if it is working or not and so the only way to find out is to do a PET scan.  I'm scheduled for a brain MRI end of this week at 7AM also and will find out about the results mid next week.  As always, I'm nervous about the outcome but continue to keep up my prayers and hopes.

Other than the dull bone aches, I still have a little rash from the Tarceva on my face and eyelids. I try to keep it moisturized with lotion and even apply some antibiotic cream on little spots where its irritated and this helps. Overall, I'm doing alright and feeling ok besides the dull bone aches.  I wish I have more energy to do more housework but I just don't have the energy like I used to so I can only take on little small tasks like some light cooking and caring for the kids.

Well, that's all for now.  Wish me well on my scans and as always, thank you for your support and prayers. Let's send out more good energy, prayers, wishes and thoughts to fight off this cancer.
