Chemo #13 has almost come to a close and has been a success.
A couple notable things-
Last week my liver levels were high, but today they were back down to normal.
And my weight was down 6 lbs from last week, and also at its all time low. Which is completely weird because I've been somewhat of a piggo most recently. Yesterday I stuffed myself with french toast and hashbrowns from Aimee's coffee shop. And then Superman and I had dinner at a friends house last night. Crawfish enchiladas. They were so good! Followed by chocolate peanut butter desert. Haven't felt that full for a long time. ...Yet...I lost 6 lbs this week. what? I have been doing tons of yoga on my first week of summer vacation. So maybe that has contributed. And I haven't eaten lunch yet today.
3 more chemos after today!
I have exactly 16 eyelashes left. Yes I counted. But my hair on other various body parts is starting to grow back. I used baby shampoo on my head this morning and felt for the first time that I was actually washing hair and not just a bare head. Its very very thin, but its there!
Tomorrow is a big day. I have an appointment with the surgeon for an ultra-sound to check in on the progress. I think this is the BIG appointment where we make decisions on what type of surgery I'm having.
I'm nervous. I have news that I want to hear all planned out in my head. But I will do whatever is most highly recommended, even if I don't like it...
Good luck Heather! Let me know how it goes!
