I forgot to mention....I finally got Vic to take Multivitamin & Visiting Nurse at 1st of only 2 visits said that was good.
But - I must ask AGAIN that Vic have blood test to see if he has a genetic disease called "Hemochromotosis" that builds up too much Iron in your body!
His cousin & nephew have it & told him & his siblings to be tested & they never did it.
If you have Hemochromotosis ......you are NOT supposed to take IRON supplements OR more than 500mg Vitamin C supplements (food iron & vitamin C are okay)!
So in my efforts to help him heal from surgery & be strong for Chemo & Radiation soon by giving him Multivitamin's that DO HAVE 100% Iron & 100% Vitamin C (not to mention "Total" Cereal" with lots of Vitamins...........I could be doing EXACTLY THE WRONG THING FOR HIM!
I'll add that to ? list for Oncologist, since she never told us Vic's Pathology Stage is "T4" & whatever #'s & ltrs follow!
Radiologist told us! (Originally Clinal stage was "3").
Other question for Oncologist is to have Vic's Hearing tested BEFORE Chemo begins......since nurse at Chemo nursing education appt. told us side affects could make ringing in the ears (which he needs a base line for........since he's a carpenter with "skill saw" ear).  |
