Since my last blogViews: 491

Since my last blog I have had a few set backs. My blood pressure is all over the place and having some bowl problems just a note all of which was expected from this new drug that I am on. Still don’t know if it is working I will be having my scans this month to see if the tumor is shirking or it could be gone. I was told I will stay on the treatment for as long as I can or if it stops working. I am seeing a new Dr. this month for my Arthritis I am so glad I know if I can just get my legs working I would feel better. It is getting increasingly hard for me to walk with my knee and now my ankles seem to be affected. I do manage to get to work everyday but by the end of my 8 hrs I am ready to get home. I don’t do much at all when I do get home just too tired and I hurt so much that all I want to do is go to bed. One bit of good news is my mouth seems to be getting better. I get hydrated a lot when getting my treatment and the day after that seems to be helping with my mouth and that offal taste I get.
The holidays were good and it was great seeing my Dad who came in from New York note he is 93 and was helping me get around pretty sad. He is healthier then I am. I got to see most of my family on Christmas Eve I fear I was just to beat on Christmas day to join in on the festivities my daughter stay home with me and we order in from a local restaurant that was open nothing fancy I was having a hard time eating anyway. I am looking forward to next Holiday season I plan on being much better…… Happy New Year to all my friends who stop by and read my blog……
