11/22/2010 Here comes Thanksgiving

We had a good trip to St. George and got to see mom and dad and Bruce and Cara for dinner to celebrate my birthday - thanks to all that wished me well on facebook.

I got my Arida treatment and was suppose to see the doctor to talk about my blood results and what comes next, but he was tied up doing a bone biopsy on another patient so we saw the nurse practitioner instead. I'll order a faxed copy of my blood results next week to see where the numbers are going. The treatment went pretty well, we ended up staying in Coral Canyon on Friday night and then went home on Saturday. I finished round 4 of the Revlimid on Friday night and I'm looking forward to a week off to recoup a little of my strength and stamina in preparation for starting the next round 5 at the end of next week. this round has run me down a little bit, I've had more fatigue and nausea than before, I assume it's because it builds up a residual in my body that keeps fighting the bad, but also drags me down some too.

We're looking forward to Thanksgiving to spend time with everyone. I'll do another update after the weekend. Thanks again for every one's good thoughts and prayers on my behalf and I wish all of you the best of times for this upcoming Holiday and Christmas season.
