Hello everyone. I am writing this on behalf of Heather. She didn't want to leave all of you who follow her blog, out of touch with what she is currently going through. Heather was admitted to the hospital today because of the fluid she has around her heart, as a result she will be offline and unable to blog until she is able to go home. The medical term for fluid around the heart is perecardial effusion. So far today she has gone through lots of testing. I am sure she will fill you in on the details when she is able. Her doctor did tell her that having fluid around the heart is a very uncommon response to cancer treatment, and an oncologist will often only see a reaction like this once in his/her career. She hasn't yet got treatment to remove the fluid but I believe that is the plan.
Prayers to Heather
Sincerely,
G
