I apologize to the two or three of you who follow this blog. I said I would be here in June - didn't make it. The only excuse I have is that, had I reported in June, my comments would have been the same as in May.
Saw Dr. Abonour last Wednesday, the 13th. The bad blood test result was a bit worse. I will continue the two weeks on, two weeks off schedule. I will receive an additional chemo which is an insertion in the chemo I have been getting. I will see Dr. Abonour on August 10, hope to have some good news to report soon thereafter.
I have no reason to expect less difficulty following the infusions. But, I have new scrips from Dr. A which may be helpful - I will know following the next infusion on July 20 and will report back here after August 10.
Mary Ann and I wondered aloud if my age and the years I have been treated meant I could expect my fatigue to gradually increase: age, yes, normal for anyone, treatment, no, that is why I have the new scripts, to get rid of the cough and sniffles to decrease the fatigue caused by the cold.
Concerning the heart surgery, no murmur, but still some discomfort at the site of entry. Although it has been more than four months, having that discomfort is not unusual at my age and with the cancer having some effect. In other words, no problem.
Will talk to you later.
