Pre-chemo # 5

Mom went in for her usual blood work and oncologist appointment this morning. Her blood counts all came back normal, which is always a good thing. She then went and saw Dr. Pansegrau, who is sending Mom for an ultrasound of her leg. Mom has been having some swelling and pain in her (left-I think) leg and the Dr just wants to make sure it isn't a clot or anything like that. So Mom should be going to get that done in the next couple of days, although with that happening, it does push her chemo date back a little bit. Will let you all know when that date is and how the ultrasound goes...

On a bit of a different note, Dr. Pansegrau told Mom that if all keeps going the way it has been, she could be back at work as early as March. Of course, this would be done slowly to make sure her body can handle it. Mom was pretty happy about that!!! :)

More to come later when we have dates set for the ultrasound and chemo.

Your chemo trail is almost finished and the news of your possible return to work is just the best! Sending you hugs and healing rest - God bless!
