Saw Dr. Rosenshein on Monday morning and mentioned my CA125 had gone up nearly 20 pts last time it was measured. He said he'd talk to Dr. Im about future treatments. At Weinberg yesterday (Thursday) Dr. Im asks me what Dr. R said to do. I told him Dr. R had said it was up to Dr. Im. Then Terri stops by. What did Dr. R say? I told her he said it was up to Dr. Im. Talk about pass the hot potato. Blood work came back showing I needed magnesium so while I was hooked up getting 2 hours of mag, I told Terri I wasn't going anywhere and to let me know what was decided. Turns out my CA125 went down 8.9 points so Dr. Im ordered another 3 treatments of Avastin. I keep hoping Avastin is working as I tolerate it well and it allows my hair to slooowwwly grow back. I celebrated by going to the Hair Cuttery and asked the gal to trim my hair so I don't look like a homeless person. Not much to style, but at least it is more shaped.
Have been taking care of Daisy this week while Megan and Alex were in Las Vegas. Their caregiver kept the kids from Monday morning until tonight. I think I got the better deal. Dylan and Christine left today for a weekend skiboarding trip to western Maryland with friends. Not sure if I'll see snow in Severna Park, but C&D should have fresh powder to enjoy in the mountains.
