Friday has come and gone and the week went pretty well. I had no reoccurrence of the Sunday issue and have been diligent keeping hydrated. The weight loss (intentional) is going to plan with me down about 10 lbs in the last 3 weeks. It is much easier to not over eat when nothing tastes […]
Month: June 2018
Dehydration – Or how losing track of a day lead to extreme pain.
So I think I got a little cocky about how easy things have been. Sunday, I allowed myself to get absorbed into some small tasks and some gaming to the point where I completely lost track of the day. Before I knew it, it was 7PM. I didn’t think much of it at the time. […]
We have a plan
I just met with Dr. Flores and she informed me that she had discussed my treatment with the Surgeon (Dr. Shutzel) yesterday and we have a plan. The plan is essentially the original plan. I should have my last treatment on July 3-5, and about 6 weeks after that will have the surgery. Some time […]
No news is ???
I met with the surgeon today and hopefully the Oncologist will have more information tomorrow. The main outcome of the meeting was a brief discussion mostly rehashing what we had discussed a few months ago, and him telling me that he would call the Oncologist to strategize. I know it was a bit naive of […]
That was a long week
So not much to say really. Last week was mostly normal. I was more tired and irritable than normal, so I took an early out on Friday to try to catch up on my rest. The coming week has all the events. I see the Surgeon on Tuesday and the Oncologist on Wednesday. I will […]
A new week
Sunday. So not much to say about the weekend. I pretty much spent it resting. Isabella let me sleep in on Sunday until 11AM and it was exactly what I needed. Still no taste buds to speak of, but I have found that I can almost enjoy a hamburger as long as I keep it […]
Treatment 10 Day 3
Today was the last day of treatment 3. I received a call a few hours before my pump turn in time and was told that my Magnesium was low still so they set me up with another 2 hour infusion. Hopefully this was a transient due to the accumulated treatments. Since they called me early, […]
Treatment 10 underway
Today was the start of treatment #10. My CBC analysis of my blood was good. ANC was up a few fractional points from last week and my white blood cell count is good. Last weeks draw showed that my Magnesium was still a bit low, so they hit me with a 2 hour infusion making […]
No news is good news
I just realized that my last post was 5 days ago. Really nothing new to say though. I feel fine, and my energy level is normal. My appointment with the surgeon has been moved from June 21 to June 19 to accommodate his schedule (he has a surgery scheduled for the same time as my […]
