Thank you all so much for praying for me with my mysterious virus and as I've been experiencing difficult symptoms. While I am still struggling with major fatigue, some nausea (which does seem to be improving), and loss of appetite, the fevers are gone and I have been able to resume chemo. Thank God. We never did figure out what has been going on with me, and it is lingering way longer than I would have hoped, but I'm super grateful that I did not end up having to go to the hospital over Easter weekend. Thank you for praying for this!
In addition to the above symptoms, I started having heart palpitations about a month ago following a chemo infusion. Dr. Awesome wants me to have this checked out, so I have a consult with a cardiologist tomorrow morning. I'm feeling pretty off-kilter lately.
In the midst of all this, it is time for scans. Big sigh. Scan day is this Thursday, and I am a little nervous going into these scans since I have missed two infusions during this last treatment cycle, due to illness. Did I mention that I had Covid at the end of February? That caused me to miss one infusion, and the fevers associated with this recent virus caused me to miss another. Argh. It is worrying and frustrating, but please pray with me for a good outcome from these scans!
It's been such a tough couple of months. Some days I am still having debilitating fatigue, and I've lost 13 pounds from just not having an appetite, and scans are just so terrifying anyway, and I could just really use a hug.
I love you and I'm so thankful for you and for the loving support you offer. Hopefully I will be able to post scan results by the weekend.
xoxo,
Danielle
