A resected toenail is not a pretty thing, and nail polish won't help.
This was a wedge resection, and I hardly believe I heard correctly, but I'm supposed to soak said nail remnant in warm water 3 times a day for six weeks, each time getting a fresh bandage. I hoping I heard that incorrectly and/or there are alternatives. Such chores go against my lazy nature.
And there are 3 more nails to do. I think I'll let him get the big right toe when I need it less for driving. The other two are candidates for total nail removal. He mentioned pulling the nails off and leaving a little poison behind. Cheerio.
This is the second week off Sutent and I can tell there is a difference in the mouth. Every little bit helps. Sutent resumes this week.
Janet and I cope daily, and frankly, all things considered, I think we are doing pretty well.
I still hope to hear from others with pRCC, to compare treatment paths.
Love and blessing boomerang back to you and all around (it's really wild).
