Chemo Day #14

All went well with the Chemo last Tuesday.
Tony has been feeling some discomfort internally. The doctor requested an ultra sound of his pelvic area to rule out a possible blood clot or infection......The results showed he has an internal infection.  Back on to the antibiotics for 14 days.
The steroids continue to give him sleepless nights for about two days after taking them.  He's dosage is once a week, Tuesday mornings.  HIGH energy on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and then he crashes come Thursday evening.  I suspect people who deal with him are seeing this Dr. Jeckle and Mr. Hyde personality.  With this high energy, he has an enormous appetite, which means weight gain, which means he's looking healthier.  Hang in there, Tony. We're in the home stretch.  Bone marrow transplant is about 5-6 weeks away.
