I just received a call from the NP at the Oncologist’s office. The CT scans were available and the good news it that they show that the chemotherapy is working. The bad news it that the upper torso scan showed a small pulmonary embolism. This happened to coincide with a left leg cramp late yesterday that could be related or could be dehydration. They will start me on blood thinners today to treat the condition. I asked if this was related to the chemotherapy and she told me that it is not related to the chemo but is common in cancer patients which is why they checked for it during the CT scan. The good news of that is that it was detected now and can be treated with the blood thinners. So much for my only vitamins and iron drug sheet.
