Smooth Sailing

Time seems to be flying by lately! I can hardly believe next Tuesday I start Cycle 3 of my clinical trial and find out the results from Cycle 2. Although I had to go on short-term disability from work due to fatigue and nausea, it really hasn't been too bad for me lately. I can only hope for continued progress, and that the side effects stay minimal, as they have so far.

On Monday I'll go through quite the process again to finish off the cycle. Lab work, a MUGA scan, an eye exam, and a CT scan must all be done to track my progress. Should make for a really fun day! :/ Then Tuesday we return to find out the results from all the tests and get a refill on my meds. After this scan, I won't have another scan for two months since I'll be in the later cycles of the trial.  I am excited there will be less time I have to spend up at Moffitt, since I'm up there at least once a week at the moment. You know you're there too often when all the employees know who you are!

As nice as it has been to be able to get the rest I need, I have missed working.  It amazes me how fast I get bored during this time away from work. Guess there is only so much Netflix you can watch before you go crazy!  Hopefully I'll have more energy in the future so I can return to a more normal, active life.

Hope everyone is having a great week!
