Taxol helping

Continued Taxol series 7 (7b) yesterday and new CA125 dropped 9.4 points to 28.8, the lowest its been since 2/2007. Yeah! Nurse Allison accessed both lumens but the magnesium (4 grams) I needed didn't get processed until I was done with my pre-meds and Taxol on the lateral lumen so just used the one line. I had had flu/diarrhea/chills from 2-7:30 a.m. prior to Lloyd's 11 a.m. memorial service 2/21. Crashed under the covers the balance of the weekend until the chills went away but left me with a uninary tract infection (or UTI). A urinalysis prior to chemo IDed it. Two tabs of antibiotic prescription from Dr. Im has already provided me much relief as of today. Am hoping this weekend I'll feel good enough to see Tyler and the progress of Megan and Alex's kitchen remodel. Granite countertops need to be installed in the next week or so before backsplash and final connections can be completed.
