Made it to my infusion this morning. Everything went pretty smoothly and no problems there. My blood pressure was normal and there were no problems with my port. The nurse did ask why I cancelled last week and so I told her that we had a stomach bug going around the family. On my way home I got a call from the nurse that works with my oncologist letting me know that my mammogram came back negative - so that was some good news as well.

Went in for a mammogram today. I was able to schedule it at the clinic near my house again so it was a pretty quick drive there and then a pretty quick procedure. My appointment was set for 1:20 and I got there a few minutes early and was out of there by 1:30. I should get the results from it in a few days. I always find the paperwork that I have to do a little annoying though. They should be able to easily look up all of my records up to this point and the fact that I have to fill out info about why I am having the scan done and if anyone in my family has had breast or ovarian cancer seems a little redundant. There was also no where on there to mark that I have ovarian cancer. The questionnaire asked if this was a routine scan or a result of some recent breast abnormalities so I marked routine scan - which it is at this point. I also think they should add a question asking if the person knows if they are BRCA-1 positive or not.

I was supposed to go in for an Avastin infusion yesterday, but woke up sick to my stomach and not in much of a condition to go anywhere. I got up around 5:30 in the morning and ended up spending some time in the bathroom dry heaving and then went back to bed until around 10:30... The kids have been passing a sickness around and I guess it was my turn to have it... They just pushed all of my appointments back a week so I will go in next Wednesday for my infusion instead.
