A Quick Update

Good Morning! Strictly an update this morning! I got my blood results back. I don’t think they tested my cancer markers this time, so I don’t get any clues about the uptake in my PET/CT scan.

My carbon dioxide level has been below the normal range for a long time, and this time, it is within normal range!! Yay! Im getting there! I need to start, and feel like I can start, upping the intensity of my workouts. So, I am going to start working up to running a mile. I start today.

Some other numbers were low again and relate to anemia, which I have had so many times. I didn’t take my iron pills with me to Italy, so it might have something to do with that!

I scheduled my imaging that my doctor ordered to make sure everything is OK in the two areas that lit up on my PET scan. I will have an ultrasound of my chest and an MRI of my liver on December 9th. Praying everything looks normal.

I meet with my oncologist on Thursday.

And, finally, I want to say thank you to the Stay Beautiful Foundation for my “Eye Dream of Beauty Box,” which contained a sleep  mask, a tea packet, and under eye gel packs. I love a good theme and the Stay Beautiful boxes always contain things cancer patients can really use.

I’ll update again after my appointment on Thursday! Stay safe and healthy, everyone!
