Just got back from the hospital, whew, long day. Saw the doctor and he changed Mike's medicine from the fentanyl patch to morphine pill 100mg twice daily (plus the 15mg morphine pills he was already taking - as needed inbetween). The chemo went well as far as we can tell. A pretty easy procedure - they just put you in a recliner and have an IV drip into the I-Port. Takes about 2 hours.
They'll be informing us when the next appointment is. I *think* we'll have a doctors appointment in 10-12 days and next chemo should be in about 3 weeks.
