Infusion #5 happening as I type, minus the harshest chemo drug. Hopefully it will be a milder recovery.

I5 was this past Wednesday. Currently in pain and nauseous, but not as severe as before. Hopefully the worst is already over.

Its been 5 days since you last treatment. I hope you are feeling better. You are in my thoughts and prayers since I read your OP. Take care Kevin.

Feeling much better today.

Report is in on the last CT scan. Unfortunately, no apparent change in the lymph nodes so far. Maybe because it had only been 4 treatments. They usually don't scan until after the 6th chemo.

Abnormal growth in the lungs, but probably benign, as well as some enlargement of the spleen.

I6 was supposed to be last week, but once again my immune system was too wiped out- platelet count was only 16 (normal is above 150; they normally won't even do chemo unless it's 100 minimum).

Blood test this morning, but no phone call, meaning it's on for tomorrow. They'll probably order another CT after. We should be seeing some shrinkage of the tumors at this stage. Keeping finger crossed.

Hang in there K. Prayers and best wishes for great pics.

Selfishly, I'm glad I'm not there yet. I'm having enough getting thru radiation. Chemo scares the shit out of me.

Chemo is definitely not fun. Don’t know how bad radiation is, but I’m guessing also high on the suckage scale.

Turns out my platelet count jumped from 16 to 101 in just a week. Amazing, the human body.

Infusing as I type.
