 | |  | | Mama gives me my Leukeran late at night, at least a couple of hours after my evening heart meds. She did this in the beginning to make sure that if the Leukeran made me barf, that I only lost it and not a bunch of other pills too.
Plus, I always get a little snack of my favorite Ocean Whitefish to make sure that my tummy isn't empty when I take it.
I only take half a pill at a time so it's pretty small. I haven't had any trouble with it in the year and a half I've taken it. Sometimes it upsets my tummy but it's usually the night that I don't take it. Go figure... Pepcid twice a day helps with that though.
I don't know about the other, but Leukeran is a little on the pricey side. Mama pays $55 for 15 pills, but this works out to be a two month supply for me. She gets it filled at Walmart. Target and Costco are pretty good places to check too. If you wind up taking Leukeran, just make sure that the pharmacy keeps it in the refrigerator. VERY important. Mama's never had any trouble but has heard that other people have.
I know that Miss Mittens takes something other than Leukeran but mama can't remember the name of it (she can barely remember all my meds!) It might be cyclophosphamide but I'm not sure.
How are you doing? Are you feeling any better?
