These past two weeks have been a roller coaster.
I started my 3rd cycle of R2 (Revlimid-Rituxan) on Palm Sunday, and by Good Friday my bloodwork had fallen and I was bruising easily (arms, elbows). I ended up sleeping for most of Easter Sunday, and my bloodwork had recovered on Monday.
Apparently the PET/CT scanner at Kaiser-Permanente Capitol Hill is the only one the KP has in the mid-Atlantic region, and it broke on Easter Sunday. Kaiser is repairing it this week and rescheduled me for 8 AM on Friday, May 3rd. I won’t know my results until I meet with my oncology team the week after.
And so it goes… it’s been a little rough and more than a little exhausting. Between chemo, insomnia, and a bout of depression, I keep trying to press on. As always, I’m thankful for Vicky, Kiyomi, Toshiro, and the support of all our family & friends.
Love and prayers to you. Hang in there.
