So far mom's appetite has been good. She has also been taking her blood pressure the past three days and it's hanging around her normal range. I have been encouraging her to drink water and she does drink water but not near the 64 ounces we are working on it though. Never been a huge water drinker so this is a little challenge lol. She has a great attitude and we love our hematologist/oncologist although it's tough to watch I am feeling better about the faintness piece seeing as others have had similar experience. Deciding to start this treatment was very nerve racking and still is quite frankly. Such a Thanks for your responses. @tampakaren, I wish you luck on your journey as well. I hadn't read about your type of leukemia I am going to look it up now. Amazing and sad really how many types of blood disorders and cancers there are.
