Appointment Update

 

My appointments have changed: my next breast MRI is January 11 and follow up with the breast surgeon is January 17.

My heart...

So, one of the chemo drugs I take, a targeted immunotherapy agent specifically, can be hard on the heart so the standard is to get an echocardiogram every 3 months. Mine is due tomorrow (Monday).

UPDATE: The echocardiogram came back perfectly normal!! Woohoo!!

Getting better….slowly

 

I’ve had 3 doses of antibiotics and the fever has stayed down since Thursday. The cough still comes and goes. All in all, I think I’m getting better!

Oh, and my COVID test was negative.

Who turned on the heat?

Last night my temp spiked to 102. The on call oncologist called in a prescription for antibiotics but it didn’t get there before the pharmacy closed. Please pray I will be able to pick up the prescription today and that I don’t have anything major.

UPDATE: noon ET

The fever has stayed down since I took the Tylenol. I’ll pick up my prescription after I get IV fluids at the oncologist’s this afternoon. For now I’m just vegging.
