update on appointments

I apologize for not updating more often. I didn't have internet access at home until today. I had been walking or "walking" to the coffeeshop for internet, but I haven't even been able to do that in the last few days. My leg has been worse since last week. My knee is swollen and stuck at a 90 degree angle. It is really hard to walk on. The orthopedic doctor called in a prescription for Vicodin and for Gabapentin to help with pain.

I have 5 appointments this week: 3 tomorrow. I meet with the orthopedic doctor tomorrow morning to discuss his plan for surgery. Afterwards, I meet with the hospital staff to determine any presurgery tests that they need. In the afternoon, I meet with my surgeon to review my scars from the cancer operation.

Thursday, I get my shot of Herceptin and Friday I have surgery on the cyst in my knee (finally!).
