Sal and I went to the hospital this morning for her normal review of progress so I thought I would bring you all up to date.
This cycle has gone pretty much to plan. Symptoms this time include slight nose bleeds, breathlessness, nausea, bad tastes, fatigue, trouble sleeping. Nothing too disabling or troublesome but they decided that Sal should have a chest x-ray today just to check.
Sal had a head CT scan last week and that has come out clear.
So, just 3 cycles more and it is all starting to become almost routine and as a result a bit less stressful or worrying. Blood test is next Wednesday and chemo cycle 4 is Thursday is her bloods are good.
More next week.
