Well we have finished the second round of chemo this last Friday. I am currently getting 3 different chemo treatments…2 thru iv and 1 in pill form. The first round hit pretty hard, leaving me with no appetite and super tired. I did enjoy all of the naps though.
In the 2 weeks between treatments I was able to eat 3 meals a day so my appetite came back pretty quick, which was good. It was a good start in an effort to try and help offset the weight loss. Not necessarily the weight loss program you want, but I am down about 25 lbs. I can’t lose too much as they won’t let me get chemo if I have lost more than 10% of what I weighed the week before.
We Have seen some changes to some tumors that are visible, so we hope the same is happening everywhere else.
I have two more treatments left - 8 days of treatment total. I have an MRI and a PET scan scheduled in the coming weeks to get an idea of how the chemo is doing in its fight to stop the spread.
Thanks for all the good thoughts and prayers!
Talk to you soon.
Wes
