Lymphemo #3 B

Happy to say that the treatment went off without a hitch. I’m feeling a little worn out after this one. Liz brought over the bloodwork and some of the numbers have changed quite a bit particularly my neutrophils. They are over my pre-chemo baseline so that means my body is bouncing back quickly. Good sign. My glucose levels were a little high(200) so i am going to fast before the next chemo to determine my true glucose level. This treatment went a little quicker than any others because the Rituxan flow was increased and that doesn’t seem to have added any adverse effects to my well being. We did do RCHOP as opposed to RHOCP.

Lymphemo #3 is in the books. Halfway through this mess and only looking forward.
