THIRD INFUSION

Good morning. My third infusion on Monday went very well. They got the needle in first try for the IV and the meds went in without problems. Nice to have a non-drama day. I pretty much slept through the whole thing. My blood pressure pretty much held mid to low 80's over upper 40's to low 50's the whole day. It's a little low but caused no problem. My body is pretty much use to the lows by now. Between the steroids and sleeping most of the day I could not sleep a wink Monday night so I was pretty exhausted yesterday. But my girlfriend Alaina picked me up and we went to Scott & Mattea's so I could show off my grandbabies. The babies loved the attention and giggled, smiled and played the whole time. Then they went off for a trip to BabysRUs with their mommy and other grammy. The babies are so much fun, I can never get enough of them. After Alaina and I had a nice visit and lunch I took a nap and slept good last night so today I feel better. Like a lot of people I'm sure, I am not very tolerant of the heat so I am pretty much staying indoors and resting. One more Rituxin infusion to go this cycle. I just started my second cycle of the Revlimid. When I finish this cycle they will to an interim scan before I start a third cycle of Revlimid. They told me Monday they won't make a decision regarding further infusions and treatment until I finish my third cycle of Revlimid in September and they do another scan. So far so good but I am excited to see the progress after I get the interim scan the first week of August. Thanks everyone and keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I truly appreciate all of the encouragement and support I am getting from all of you. Although I get a little lonely at times being somewhat isolated, I am happy and will keep on fighting.
