Following on from Monday's blog, I phoned my consultant's secretary this morning to get the latest CA125 result. I had had a test done at my local hospital last Mon and it was 234 (before starting treatment it was 202) and my consultant wanted another one done at this hospital where I have my treatment. Anyway, rang the sec, lovely Sarah and the result was......342. What!.....deep breaths lizzie, relax. I promised myself I would not get het up over these numbers, So I thanked her and then calmly went off for my 3rd lot of Caelyx.
The rest of my bloods were fine and the chemo went very well. The atmosphere in the chemo suite is always uplifting and there was a lot of laughter today. My chemo was administered by the lovely "Juan", who is Spanish with dark curly hair and big brown eyes (I didn't get too excited, hubby was with me) .
So I may be having a scan sooner rather than later, but that's fine. I am feeling well and enjoying life and that is the main thing.
Lots of love to everyone,
lizzie xx
