not ideal

Since my last post:

- started 300mg
- spent the week miserable
- assumed it was the medicine
- scheduled an appointment
- hypothesized with Stephanie that I was bleeding again
- hematocrit dropped 9
- CT scheduled for tomorrow

It's not ideal. They've scheduled the CT just to make sure it was in fact a bleed and how much it was. The hematocrit is not so low that they want to do a transfusion, but it does explain why yesterday I got fully ready for work, laid on my bed, and didn't move again for almost three hours. I fell asleep hard. My naps have been epic over the last week - five hours each day this weekend.

Let's not panic, but let's do start praying again that there will be no more bleeding.

Last week was the worst.

I'm alive

I'm alive. I'm working. I'm moving along. Sometimes I forget I have cancer and then a day like yesterday happens when I have to take two, three hour naps and I remember.

Life, ya know. It's weird sometimes.

I start 300mg tomorrow and I am not looking forward to it. It took over a week and a half to get approval from insurance and everyone to sign forms and for the online pharmacy to send it. I'm switching from 400mg tablets to 100mg tablets and it basically took an act of God.

Have a great weekend.
