Today is the 30th day after my stem cell transplant. I am still staying at Mark's Assisted Living which has been conveniently close (the required 30 minutes or less) from MD Anderson. I am still pumping iron (not really) to try to increase my energy level; nausea and vomiting comes and goes (almost) without notice. My chest x-ray came back with some more questionable areas on Friday. So my doctor wanted me to have another CT scan of the chest on Monday. No fevers though and only an occasional cough. I am also dealing with some swelling and associated pain in my feet and calves as well.
All and all I feel very grateful that I am feeling as well as I do. Not sure why I continue with the nausea, but I will ask the doctor tomorrow. It probably has something to do with all the medications, including 4 antibiotics, I am taking.
My sister in-law, Shirley is my new sitter for the week. Thank you Shirley!!!!! God didn't bless me with any sisters, but he sure blessed me with some of the best sisters in-laws anyone could hope for!!
