Apparently it only lasts a month or maybe two before the fluid builds up again ... that is what she said when I was on Taxotere. Also the scaring on the lungs from doing the procedure causes other pockets of fluid to form. <br /><br />Apparently, they'll only do the procedure on me when it really really bothers me and I'm not there yet.Dariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10806073037988154854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479782985101649883.post-15386835811766906582010-02-03T14:35:58.539-07:002010-02-03T14:35:58.539-07:00I am happy that Benadryl gives you some rest.

I remember a computer class in college where I woke up at the end of it with little keyboard marks all over my face. I am so sorry you are having to go through this. You are a strong, tough lady. I will pray the fluid clears up quickly. Lots of love from TN,<br /><br />Kerry OsborneKerry ABOUT MEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07136898976306195057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479782985101649883.post-44709869986575420212010-02-02T16:11:36.062-07:002010-02-02T16:11:36.062-07:00Hope you see improvement soon..sounds irritating a...Hope you see improvement soon..sounds irritating and worrisome. <br /><br />Take care<br />BreezeCarolyn R.
