Well I just got good news from my doctor, that the PET scan didn't show any signs of the two sites that showed up before!!!
I still have to finish the treatment plan, which I still have to finish this 3rd chemo cycle and 16 days of radiation over a 3 week period.
I also got answers to the questions that I had for my DR.
1). How long will I be on meds? For about a month after the radiation treatments end.
2). How long will I need to take Prilosec? (some of
the steroids cause heartburn) Same as question 1.
3). How long will it take after the chemo is all
done to get my immune system back to normal? It depends, but I should be back to normal in about a month after chemo.
4). What tests can be done to check if someone has
Lymphoma or is at risk of Lymphoma? NONE
More info after I get settled in my room.
Well I got settled into my room about 2pm and got my PICC line in around 6pm and got my Chemo started around 9pm.
We ate lunch in the Cafe downstairs while we waited for the room to be available and just hung around talking over the plan for this cycle which is work out just fine.
I had a good dinner and I feel great about this cycle.
Tomorrow is another day and I'm not going to have any problems handling it either.
