Well, Izzy started on her cancer regimen today.
She will be taking Cyclophosphamide on alternating days with Piroxicam. Once every three weeks, she will go in for an IV of some chemo agent. I hope she doesn’t get too sick.
Isn’t it weird how sometimes you don’t notice things until you have a reason to do so. I’ve gotten my haircut at the same place for the past fifteen years. Next to the salon is a business called the Wellness Pharmacy. That’s where I picked up Izzy’s meds.
It is a pharmacy that specializes in making drugs that are not readily available at a commercial pharmacy. I never knew such a place existed. For instance, where else can you get beef-flavored cancer drugs for dogs? They also do things like make capsule medicine into liquid for children or those who have difficulty swallowing or make drugs without common allergen components, such as gluten.
What an amazing way to really make a difference in someone’s life!
