Easy as pie

My 1st maintenance treatment of rituxan went without a hitch. You know the drill by now, big dose of Benadryl, steroid and then the rituxan. I was optimistic when I said I thought we'd be done by noon. It was 1 pm by the time we left the infusion room. Then home to sleep, well, for the rest of the day. Today I'm kinda zipping around but there is so much to be done, this is not a bad thing. Dr. Kubba said everything was looking good - blood work normal and the recent good scan. I told him about how jumpy I'm feeling and he gently told me to get a grip. Good advice I'd say. :)

1st rituxan maintenance treatment tomorrow

Hello Friends,

It's been some time since I last posted here. I hope this finds you all well and happy. I've been busy and well. Summer flew by... Almost 3 months here at the ranch. It was a joy spending time watching the crias grow and puttering around with a modest garden and various projects. The new semester began mid-August. Seriously people, don't most schools begin AFTER LABOR DAY?! Oh well, we are now a good month into the semester and I'm settled into the new routine. I have felt reasonably well but I must admit, I'm "jumpy." I'm worried when I feel a little under the weather or have what I perceive to be symptoms, that the cancer is back. I'm sure hoping that this passes with time because right now it makes me feel a bit paranoid. Tomorrow marks the first of my rituxan "maintenance" treatments so oh joy, back to the infusion room I go. With any luck it will all be over by noon-ish and then we have the weekend to ourselves. It's supposed to be brutally hot so that should make working on our kitchen construction project very fun.  I'll post again tomorrow after I get home. As always, thanks for reading.
