2nd treatment

Views: 576

Well I made it through my 2nd treatment with no really side effects. I have to have my urine tested before each treatment to see if I have a build up of protean in my urine; it showed a slight elevation from the 1st treatment. This brought on a debate on if I should get the 2nd dose. After much discussion with several people it was concurred by all involved that they should go ahead. I was a point 0. 3 per parts the 1st treatment and by the 2nd treatment I went up 3 more points to 0.6 I guess the cut off is 2.0 So I have to get tested every week from now on. I guess their worry is I am a diabetic. I am glad they are so careful with me. I have stopped taking any Tylenol products because of the effects they have on the Liver. So that leaves me with no choices for pain meds. At least till next weeks appointment to see how I am doing.. I guess this is why they call this a trial.
I do have an interesting thought I am a diabetic and have always had problem regulating
My sugar lately under new meds I have been doing pretty well but I still would have my days were my sugar would be high in the AM. Well, since I have been doing this study I have noticed something funny… My sugars have been better then normal I run no higher then 120 more often around 98-94 which for a diabetic is better then good. I wonder if this new trial drug for my cancer has anything to do with it.

I had a great Thanksgiving ate good food and enjoyed the company. I have to give hats off to my Daughter for her 1st Thanksgiving dinner it was great.. I hope all my friends had a great Thanksgiving with family and friends.
