Multiple Myeloma

8-16-13

Last Friday (8-9) I took my steroid fix mid-morning (I had forgotten earlier) and on Saturday awoke ready to take on the world.  As I reported earlier, I had a busy day, even did some work outside.  Then, Sunday, Monday, and a bit of Tuesday, I was zombie like - worthless.  There is the possibility that I took the steroid hit too soon after resuming the Revlimid program.

So this week, having been back on Revlimid for more than a week, I moved the steroids to Thursday morning, and awoke this morning, again with much energy.  But I did not take on the world, I rested until 10, then Mary Ann and I drove to Columbus, IN to meet with Mary Stroh, oldest g/child, attorney, who is helping us with our estate planning.  We then had lunch with Beth, John, Mary and Patrick, and went to see the house the four of them are renovating for Mary and Patrick to enjoy in the near future.  They have done a tremendous amount of work, excellent work, and we are anxious to see the finish.

Mary Ann and I returned to Indianapolis around 3, I immediately took my afternoon nap, and have just had dinner.  The steroids are wearing off, I am my usual lackluster 8 o'clock self, about ready to turn in.  Tomorrow we will see if I am in for another Zombie day or two.  More here tomorrow, I hope.
