Today is better than yesterday.
The snacks at the Infusion Center are nice too... lemon bars... mmmmm. While that might read bad... I still maintain a diet full of nutritious foods.
Last night I loaded up on Vicodin and parked on the couch. Luckily, The Longest Day was on and I was able to enjoy that as the Vicodin meandered its way through my system. It took effect and I was able to grab 4.5 solid hours of sleep. The pain in my hip and knee seems to have migrated to my sacrum.
Nobody ever writes a comment on my blog.
Tomorrow is supposedly when the biopsy results roll in.
My literature blog is full of drafts, so I sent two out last week just to get something on there.
Today, I'm having IV/IG... second one since the one 10 days ago. Not sure when to expect results. I think it takes awhile to respond... like a month, but of course I'm hoping for sooner. At least they have come up with a formula that speeds it up to a 3-hour gid instead of the 5 hours it was the first time I got it. When the nurse showed me the IV bag and it said "immunoglobulin (human)" and said they stopped using the "alien" kind, I was amused.
I'll try to work after this.. maybe check some work emails and talk about some upcoming briefings.
Keeping the faith....
Hi Ed I read your comments every day sometimes even check several times. You Dad
ReplyDeleteLike your dad, I check your blog regularly. I so appreciate that you had this idea of blogging your "adventure." I've thought of commenting, but the whole idea of what you're going through boggles the mind, that anything I think of saying seems underwhelming. I think you are an amazing person to be able to go through what your're going through and still keep your spirits up. Thanks for taking care of my baby sister when she was so sick, too. I have to say it again - You are amazing. Pam
ReplyDeleteHey bro,
ReplyDeleteI've sent emails when I wanted to comment as I've been reading through a Google blog viewer that didn't present the comment option.
I'll probably switch to reading directly to allow me to comment directly.
