Day 96
BONE MARROW IS CLEAN!!! Yipeeeeee!!
Bone marrow biopsy was done on Friday. OUCH! I was a nervous Nellie with high blood
pressure and rapid heartbeat. (I always
have low blood pressure.) I was the 5th
patient in clinic to have “the drill” instead of the manual tool to remove the
marrow. The pain was about the same but works
faster. The drill reaches in and gets a
better sample too. Got a call Friday
night that the blood slides looked clean but needed to wait for some other
tests to confirm. Today I got another
call that so far everything is clean and no signs of leukemia!!!!
This Friday (my 100 day mark) we’ll discuss with the doctors
the next steps. Need to follow up on
some breathing treatments, maybe some scans and more blood work. Hopefully I will get the port out sooner than
later.
Two good friends are back in-patient and fighting this
horrible disease. My heart breaks for
them. Send all of your good vibes to them….I have already been blessed!
