Wishing you well on your biopsy. It’s an important one. It will let your doctor know how well the blasts were knocked down in that first round of chemo. Fingers crossed for you! I remember it all very well…I was going through all the chemo and then waiting for transplant 5 years ago right now. My first chemo was Feb 11, 2019. I had 2 more rounds after that which held me until the preconditioning chemo for transplant the end of June that year.
Wisdom will come as you keep plugging along with this! You’re being tossed an entirely new language and terminology you never expected to learn. Amazing what new tricks we ‘old dogs’ can learn, huh?
Now, patience, on the other hand is a tough one to learn. It’s as though this is all hurry up and wait…you’ll have quite a few hours waiting impatiently…sorry. ☺️ I spent lots of time with a little watercolor set I brought along, binging on Netflix, reading and sleeping.
I’m here anytime you need me. I’ll check in with you after next Friday too…let me know how you did, ok?

Thank you so much!

Going for SCT evaluation on Friday 14th. Three rounds of chemo. My K/L has been reduced from 43 to 4. Red blood cells are .1 below min normal. Scared to death of side effects in SCT.
