The days we got to the doctor are always filled with a bit of anxiety to say the least. We went in to get labs drawn and do the overall check on how Im tolerating treatment. (which we all know the answer to. Not well with all the side affects.)
The good news is, my liver is good, and all my blood work is good. As for the rest....its been decided that Im to be taken off the Zelberaft for 2 weeks, and hey are moving my scans up to next week. This is due to me having the extreme side. They are stopping so that my body can have a chance to heal, then if the scans show that the zelberaft was working, and Im healed enough, we will start back. This is normal for some patients, and once given a chance to heal the side affects arnt as bad, or dont happen. We are happy with this news. Not only do we get the scans done a few weeks earlier, but a break will be nice.
My wheelchair came in as well! Im happy that now Ill be able to get around much better now. I was/am able to walk short distances with a cane, but now this allows us as a family to do a bit more.
So there it is. Ill take it as a good doc day.
