CARDIOLOGIST REPORT: Well, the tables are turning..... a top result from the echocardiogram- my heart appears to have made a comeback- and is performing up to capacity again. This is a significant development as it means that the side- effects of the first chemo are now back to level. I still need to stay on heart protection as a precautionary measure.
It also raises a new possibility again for me. I will be bringing this up with the oncologists as soon as possible- can I again gain access to PAZOPANIB if I need it in the the future as another possible treatment?
The more options I have, the better!
Another successful appointment today was with the Physiotherapist. We spent a lot of time setting baselines but also working on understanding the lymphatic system and what to do to work on my legs and mobility. I feel armed with enough information ansd strategies to really get my walking capacity back a bit more. In the meantime, I will use the supports I need to ensure I can get around and be safe.
On another note, we had to cancel the PICC line going in today - I have to make sure I don't do my injection clexane before going in - apparently that is dangeourous to do and could cause more difficulties. So, I am to go back next Tuesday for the PICC line. It seems that I will be in and out of hospital for most of next week!!!
It is all happening,
Love your Life,
