I continue to do well with chemo. My CA-125, a tumor marker for
ovarian cancer, has dropped from 275 to 35 to 20 with three
treatments. The normal range starts at 21, so my last reading is
considered "normal". My main side affects are nausea/vomiting,
fatigue, bone/joint pain and neuropathy. All of it is tolerable and
I'm just trying to help my body deal with this assault. My white
blood count is high now thanks to a Neulasta shot the day after
treatment. My red blood count continues to plummet after a
treatment, but so far I've escaped a blood transfusion. All in all,
I'm pleased.
Thank you for the love and concern you have shown me and my family.
It means more than words can say. Please continue to pray for me. I
feel God is the ultimate healer and I'm trusting Him to make my body
whole again, cancer free.
