December Injection

Today I went to go get mine injection. Got there at 2p appointment was at 2:30. I was worry about getting there on time since the roads were bad with a ice storm we had. But parts of them were OK and bridges were not so good. But I got there on time. They call me back about 2:15 did my labs that went OK nurse did OK. Went back out to lobby to set and wait for them to call me back to get injection. About 2:30 they call me back and she started my IV. They always have to do IV down in my lower arm around my wrist and that does not feel so good. It hurt a little but she got it done. Then she went and put in order for my Zometa. Took about 20 mins not so bad and then ran a little more fluids thru the IV.

Labs got the results and Iron was low again. And there were several other labs that were low. But my WBC (white blood count) were good. So I got my results for tumor markers from Nov. Remember in Oct they were 59.9 Well Nov are 79 so they have gone up a lot. They started just going up like 5 markers but it seems like they are going up more then just 5 marks. So I am keeping a eye on them. I wont get Dec tumor markers until I go back Jan 7.  When I go in Jan 7 I will also see Dr. Oommen. I also have a CT Scan on Jan 3 and I will get those results when I go in on Jan 7. All in all it was a good visit.

The Lord is my healer!

I know am late!

I know am late I said I was going to let y'all know about Nov. 12 injection. Well here it goes went in at 2p sign in and waited for them to call me. They call me back to get labs done. It went good no problems with them sticking me. Then went back to lobby and sit down until they call me to get injection done. They call me back about 2:30 had to wait a little bit before they did the IV. They had to wait for lab results to come back. Once they came back then they started the IV with fluids only. The nurse turn in my order for Zometa. Zometa takes about 20 min to run.

As far as the labs they were really good. Even the Iron was normal this time. Remember me telling y'all about tumor markers and how they are climbing. I get the results of tumor markers a month behind. So even thou this is Nov. injection I want get Nov tumor markers until Dec. So in Oct my tumor markers were 59.9. I am curious to see what Nov. tumor markers are. But all the other labs were good. I go back Dec 10 for my next injection.

May the Lord shine thru your eyes when someone looks into them.
