NEXT STEP

first of all .....rest
a break before the 30 days of radiation starts.
the first thing that has to happen is that my shoulder needs to heal enough to hold it in place over my head for the mapping and tatooing needed to set up the radiation.
right now that is impossible so i will start physical therapy - hopefully tomorrow 3x weekly here at home...
there was some question about coverage as i do not fit the medicare definition of homebound but the dr and physical therapy lab somehow worded it so they gave an electronic approval... hopefully there will be no issues.....
the more i move the shoulder the more the pain so along with the taxol back and leg pain i expect the next few weeks to be one big pain mess.....
i dread drugs so hope i don't have to take a lot of pain meds....
i do want to get on with the treatment so it can be over.....
so for now it's rest,limbo and more waiting....
