I can't believe how long it's been since I posted anything here! I guess with everything going on with Mom and some other matters, I just never sat down and typed. But here I am today...and with good news too!
Last week we did my regular blood draw before my infusion. Kidney functions looked good so we proceeded with the Zometa. However, two of my liver function numbers were way out of whack. So we scheduled a re-draw for one week later. As each day passed I started to worry a little bit more. By Wednesday I was incredibly nervous. I went in at 8am for the blood draw. At 2:30 when I left work for the day I called the clinic to see if they had my results yet. The nurse said the numbers had come way down since last week but were still slightly elevated. I wasn't sure what to think of that. So I got another call this morning and she said that Dr. Kumar looked at the numbers and said that since they didn't stay raised (or go any higher) that this is not something that's cancer-related. Several things could have caused the numbers to be so high (including any alcohol I may have had to drink the night before). So today I am walking on sunshine because my liver is looking good!!
Mom is getting around better all the time and it sounds like the physical therapy is doing the trick. I am soooo looking forward to having the whole family together this month! It just seems like it's been too long!!
And as if my day couldn't get any better, now my wonderful friend Kristi (aka KB) and I are planning a trip to New York City!
I am blessed.
