041307 -        Date: Sun, 03 Jan 2010 12:08:27 -0800
041319 -         ..
041320 -    2.  Now that the Holidays are over, hopefully the medical team will
041321 -        have time to complete the treatment plan for my 10th relapse,
041322 -        which has occurred, or soon will.  As previously requested, I
041323 -        need a list of proposed treatments supplementing the list under
041324 -        review submitted to the team on 090326, and an explanation of
041325 -        trade-offs with respect to effectiveness, side effects, and
041326 -        cost [see case study requesting trade-offs reported on,
041327 -        ref SDS 6 X66O].
041329 -         ..
041330 -    3.  Currently, pain along the left arm and across my chest has
041331 -        become an increasing issue.  I have been taking oxychodone
041332 -        (Percocet) and Vicodin 2 - 4 times daily to control pain, and
041333 -        sometimes 2 Percocet at once, per your approval during the last
041334 -        meeting.
041336 -         ..
041337 -    4.  The past few days the right side of my forehead, and including
041338 -        my right eye lid, and extending onto the right side of my head
041339 -        above the hairline has developed a series of light red rashes.
041340 -        Hoping this is a side effect of Navelbine that will subside
041341 -        during this by-week prior to the next cycle.  Cannot find
041342 -        reference to a facial rash for Navelbine on the Internet.  The
041343 -        rash causes swelling and discomfort to the right eye.  Would
041344 -        like to get this investigated tomorrow.  Should I see you for
041345 -        initial review, and possibly referral to dermatology or
041346 -        opthalmology for the eye?  I could also go to Minor Injury or
041347 -        ER, if your schedule is too busy tomorrow.  Please let me know.

041349 -            [On 100103 2023 Millie updated medical team explaining rash
041350 -            has worsened into severe blisters that seem to require
041351 -            immediate care. ref SDS 21 RH7Y

041354 -            [On 100104 2144 Doctor Zhang at Kaiser Adult Medicine
041355 -            diagnoses shingles, advises Millie should have been treated
041356 -            today in Kaiser's Emergency Department. ref SDS 22 0P9S
041358 -         ..
041359 -    5.  Your letter on 091214 1543 reported that Doctor Rugo did not
041360 -        have time to respond to your letter on 091211 requesting UCSF
041361 -        work plan for my next treatment.  Now that the Holidays are
041362 -        over, the medical team will have more time to collaborate on
041363 -        identifying treatment targeted to my patient profile.  I was
041364 -        thrilled with the cancer marker dropping to CA 15-3 211 on
041365 -        091215 after the 1st cycle of Navelbine.  This was a
041366 -        significant decline from nearly 400 in July and August, after
041367 -        resolving delays getting treatment requested in April.

041369 -            [On 100105 1602 Millie reports diagnosis of shingles, and
041370 -            plans meeting with Doctor Johnson to review Doctor Rugo's

041376 -            Millie's letters, ref SDS 24 E199, and reported that Doctor
041377 -            Rugo has still not submitted a work plan for Millie to
041378 -            recover from UCSF medical mistakes. ref SDS 24 KH4F
041380 -         ..
041381 -    6.  Cancer marker most recently increased for the lab on 091222 to
041382 -        CA 15-3 248.  Hopefully, the rise of the cancer marker does not
041383 -        indicate the facial blemish is IBC spreading.  IBC rash on the
041384 -        left arm and across my chest seems about the same to possibly
041385 -        worse.  It has not continued to spread around my back nor the
041386 -        lower abdomen.

041397 -    7.  We have a meeting scheduled next week on 100112.  I would like
041398 -        to get feedback from Doctor Rugo on your collaborations, so I
041399 -        can be prepared for the meeting with you on 100112.  As well,
041400 -        please let me know if you can see me in the morning to address
