Hi Von,
It is always so good to hear from you and I hope that you are doing good as well. I passed along your well wishes to my wife, she appreciated that. We are on a 3 week chemo therapy for her now, instead of weekly. It’s more of a maintenance dose until her next scans which are scheduled for May 8th. Then they decide next steps, depending on the progression of the cancer, or the lack there of (which is what is in our prayers). My electromyography and NCT (nerve conduction test ) went well yesterday. They basically stick needles in you and send shock signals to the nerve points to see what’s going on with the nerves in my legs and what’s causing the swelling, the pain and fatigue that’s keeping me from walking more than a few steps. I get those results back this Friday when I have a follow up appointment. The follow up appt is to inject my back with medial branch block epidural injections to assist with my lower back pain. I will let you know how it goes, what the results of the electromyography were and how the pain management injections went.
As always, thanks for your support and I’ll talk to you soon.
Dennis
