So I got the interpretation of the results today and all is well. There is significant improvement in my lungs, no new tumors and those in my liver shrunk. So what’s up with the bones?? My doctor thinks it is healing. Sounds like it is hard to tell the difference between disease and scar tissue on a scan. Since everything else is going well, I’ll believe him. For now.
This new medication is still treating me well. The stomach issues continue, but I’m managing it. Tumor markers are down to 51.5 from 120, blood pressure is good even off the high blood pressure medicine, I’m breathing better and my hair is still growing. I’ll take it!
You know what is upsetting? I think I feel too good for disability. That was always my comfort when I had a bad day… I could always go on disability. But I think I’d get denied. Such problems!! So for now, there’s chocolate.
My biggest issue today was the nurse wearing a concert t-shirt and calling me sweetie. I am NOT a sweetie. But I was good and stayed quiet. He was filling in so hopefully I won’t need to deal with that again. Dress properly and treat your patients with respect!! Yep, I think this means I’m old.
