Good visit with Dr. Abonour today.
About 40 blood tests, all within normal range except Hgb ( hemoglobin I think) slightly low, not enough to be concerned, just need to eat more steak and hamburger. I need more diagnoses like that.
PET scan showed one small spot on a right rib, which may not be myeloma, all other spots are gone. Not to worry about the one.
So, started tonight the two week regimen of revlimid and related drugs. Back for blood tests on January 6, don't need to see Dr. Abonour until February 19.
I did get another testosterone shot; Mary Ann and I believe they are helping relive the fatigue. I suggested no vacuuming yet, nurses did not seem to agree.
Concerning the feet discomfort, others with MM have had similar problems, so relief may just take time. Since walking and standing, but for a stagger now and then, are OK, should have no problem with golf next spring.
I doubt there will be much to say about MM for a while since I am in remission. I might get back to this from time-to-time on other matters, like the Affordable Care Act, or same-sex marriage, or other non controversial matters. Feel free to correct me at kbwilson@comcast.net.
