So last day of Round 2! Just bleo today, and blood work to make sure my white blood cells are cooperating. I feel great honestly, if it wasn't' for the fact that i was sitting in a chemo chair having deadly chemicals pumped into my body right now I would say I am "normal" :-P
I organized the garage/house a bit yesterday while i was feeling good. I know that next week is gonna hit me like a ton a bricks so I want to get as much done this week and weekend as I can. I worked for several hours last night and many more today. My goal, since its as new pay cycle, is to work 50+ hours this week while I am feeling good and that way I don't' have many hours left to try and cover next week as I descend into chemo HELL!.
I will update later with what my blood work says and if I have to do more yummy nuepogen shots, ttyl.

Ok I am just blown away. I got back my blood work, and .... Its amazing I am walking around. Nearly every count is at its lowest its EVER been some by a factor of 10!, even my Red Blood cells and Hemoglobin are crashing and that has never happened. Those are low enough to where if they drop much more I am going to need a blood transfusion!! I am not really sure what to say, most of them are in "Critical" range and the rest are either "Alert" or "Low". I just don't' understand how my blood counts can be such trash, and I feel fine... best I have in weeks.
So I am on quarantine AGAIN, my doctor made me put on my mask IMMEDIATELY and I can't take it off until I get home. We are still going to do my chemo today and finish off this round... and we are gonna do LOTS more nuepogen shots (nearly out of pain meds gonna need more of those) and I see my oncologist on Thursday so we are going to reassess then and see how much my body has recovered.

Well i got my two shots for home then next two days, and gave my self one just a second ago; so we shall see if they can bring be back up out of the abyss by Thursday when I see my Dr. Here is your chair pick of the day, nearly done for the day:
VICTORIOUS over Round 2 of BEP! Even though my blood cell counts are in the trashcan right now we will get them back up. The important thing is that I am DONE with Round 2!
