Little by little
Oh dear. Saw the oncologist this morning. He had two CA15-3 tests to read. Normal is 39 and below. For ten years I sat in the 40s. Last month I hit the 70s but then came down. But yesterday I was in the 130s, the highest ever. Don't know why. I'm beginning a new chemotherapy regimen in about two weeks. But the truth is, I seem to be wasting (cachexia) and that's very bad news.
We bought my much coveted walker from Costco today. It's the kind that turns itself into a seat if
I get tired. There are storage units under the seat as well.
My regular medical marijuana collective closed and is no more. There are others around, but I have to find them. The pain relief is superior to morphine....
I had six medical appointments this week so I am more than ready for a three-day weekend...
The 'wasting' caused by the increasing tumour burden? I hope your weekend was restful. Hope you gain the strength you need to do this next bout of chemo coming up soon.
ReplyDeleteOh no! :( I sure hope there was a big mistake!
