Last weekend I started to have pain in my back again but then it went away. It reoccurred last night bad enough for me to take pain reliever for it. I pray it's just from the work I've been trying to do to get things caught up before I go back in. But we'll see.
Sorry for the delay, this was to be posted on Thursday but never made it due to trying to get things caught up. Moving on.
The ride down on Friday was unbearable, and by the time I got situated in my room it was most likely the most pain that I have experienced so far. The pain went from my bottom left side to the top of my left shoulder blade. It took 90mg of IV morphine, laudanum, and Oxycontin to get rid of the pain. After they got the pain under control, which took until about midnight, they got me started on the chemo. The first day went well as usual, but the second day has been rough unlike the first round. I pray that the third is no worse than the second, but I'll see tonight.
On a better note, this is the last dose of this round, then Monday is my rest day.After that they insert my stem cells back into me on Tuesday. And if it's anything like last time at the end of the week the pain starts, but we'll see.
They did an MRI on me when I got here and seem to think that the pain was caused by the deterioration in my spine, probably due to the chemo, certainly not what you want to hear. But still waiting to see what my bHCG marker is to tell whether its the cancer or not, but we'll see.
Well obviously the homestead in on hold once again but we did get the chicken coop almost completely done thanks to Bob a brother up here and my Dad.
Sorry about the pictures, just learning how to do it, but it gives you the general idea of whats going on. Lord willing, talk soon,
