0812 -
081201 - Yesterday Millie complained of pain in the spine of her back.  She
081202 - associates this with Nupigen shots she started on Saturday to boost
081203 - her immune system by raising her white blood counts, reported on
081204 - 040405. ref SDS 5 XU7L
081206 -  ..
081207 - She took a Vicadin pill for pain yesterday, and we went for a short
081208 - walk to a fair in Clayton.
081210 -  ..
081211 - Yesterday after dinner, she had the 2nd Nupigen shot.  Tonight she
081212 - will take the 3rd and final Nupigne shot for this 1st cycle of
081213 - treatment.

081216 - Early this morning, OA 0400 she took another Vicadin for pain.
081218 -  ..
081219 - This morning while we were preparing some breakfast for Millie, she
081220 - said a blister just burst on her 2nd from small toe on the right foot.
081221 - She said this blister began about 5 days ago, and got steadily worse.
081223 -  ..
081224 - This seems like it might be one of the side effects cited by the
081225 - pharmacist on 050415. ref SDS 5 7F8Q  Observation showed now general
081226 - redness on other toes or the right foot.  Other than the blister, the
081227 - rest of the foot and toes on both feet look normal.  Millie said that
081228 - the blister began a week ago when she wore some tight fitting shoes,
081229 - and went for a walk at lunch time along the Embarcadero in the City.
081230 - Since there is no general redness in the either the feet nor the
081231 - hands, this blister not be a side effect, but merely a blister from
081232 - the walk with tight shoes.

081235 - Millie has not had to take Compazine to arrest quesy feeling.
081237 -  ..

081243 - became steadily more prominent the past few months is now nearly gone
081244 - in the upper breast area.  There are no new bumps or sores, and the
081245 - sores reported on 050311, ref SDS 4 UA8N, are now very much reduced.
081246 - They no longer protrude and are now merely a blemish on the skin.  The
081247 - breast skin is noticably softer with areas of some, but less,
081248 - stiffness common to IBC.  The sore from the punch biopsy taken on
081249 - 040419 that disclosed IBC has nearly completely healed.
