Spoke with the study nurse today after she consulted with my oncologist. The decision has been made to have me continue taking the Foreitnib and Lapatinib as well as the daily injections of Dalteparin. The Dalteparin has done wonders re eliminating the swelling in my legs, and will also lessen the likelihood of another clot forming in the future. I've responded well to the cancer meds, so am happy to get back on them despite the recent setback. Now that I'm able to give myself the daily injections of Dalteparin, I'm feeling even more comfortable about the situation. Ah, my empathy will pincushions continues to grow.
Off to the Cancer Agency tomorrow for my regularly scheduled meeting with the study nurse. Back on track re the other ongoing appointments as well. Must say it is nice to be back on a regular schedule, although having a "weekend off" was good, too.
