Wrapped up Taxol series #7

March 5th I finished the 7th treatment of Taxol. My CA125 went up 8.3 points so it's over 35 again--37.1. This number has been see-sawing since January between 28.8 and 39.7. During this time, I've been under stress of Lloyd's terminal illness so Dr. Im said not to worry about this number. Plan is to continue Taxol treatments. I've #8 series scheduled for March 26, and April 2 and 16. And I have acupuncture treatments twice a month. Most aggravating has been a UTI that keeps me up at night despite a 10-day antibiotic. May need another 10 days in order to get rid of it. Continue to work full-time despite being really tired. Hopefully longer days (daylight savings) and warmer weather will perk up my spirits.
