My stomach is done feeling the after affects of chemo as of the last couple days or so.\u00a0 This time around was pretty much the exact same as last time.\u00a0 Wednesday and friday sucked but thursday sucked the most, Saturday was better than Friday and Sunday was markedly better than Saturday, with Monday pretty much back to normal.\u00a0 Had a bone marrow test thursday before they gave me the shot to up my white blood cell count.\u00a0 Sucked most definitely but less than the first one I had a while ago.<\/p>\n
The Monday of the last chemo, before they started chemo I had an appointment with Dr. Dragon, he felt for lumps as usual but unlike usual he found a lump in my left armpit.\u00a0 He was concerned it could be from hodgkin’s (it’s also possible it’s some kind of fat pad lump thing) and so I’m getting a PET scan on Monday to see if it shows up.\u00a0 The stem cell doctor wanted me to do a CT scan before my appointment with her which is on Wednesday (10th), so that’s scheduled for tomorrow.\u00a0 So I’ll have both types of scans for them to look over\/check, so should be able to see what’s going on.\u00a0 If it is a new lump then they’ll have to regroup and change to a different treatment.\u00a0 Not sure if that means the same thing but different chemo drugs (like do a few cycles of a different chemo then do the radiation then do the super chemo but a different one and still do stem cell shit) or how much will change.\u00a0 I guess I’ll know next week, especially since I’ve got appointments with the stem cell doc and radiology oncology doc next week.\u00a0 Overall I think I’m feeling better than I did a month or two ago, so it’s probably doing something at least, but we’ll see if it’s doing enough soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
