Oops, maybe a little do over for some of last night's post
So, we got up this morning and went up to the hospital for my appointment. Anyway today was pretty much what it was suppose to be but when we got to the meeting with Dr. Petersen, he started talking about the proper time to do the next transplant and he explained to us (Patty and I) that the approved numbers for the M-spike should be less than 10% of what my high number was early this year, it was 2.2 so my number needs to drop to below 0.2 to meet the proper criteria. So the decision was made to finish my current round of Pomalyst and most likely do at least one more, so that will push thing out at least 7-8 weeks, and because that is over 30 days from now, they couldn't do any of the pre-admittance tests that I was suppose to be doing tomorrow and Friday, so I was sent back to Dr. Te and Dr. Petersen and Dr. Te will stay in contact and when the numbers drop then I will have to make all the arrangments again although there is a good chance they will let me do a lot of the pre-admittance testing down at Dixie Regional Hospital since they are also part of the IHC family like LDS is.
So, I'll keep the appointments for blood labs and review by Dr. Te in August and go for another round of Pomalyst and see what is happening towards the end of September.
Oh well, we'll have a good couple of days in Salt Lake and a mini vacation until everyone gets up for the wedding on Friday, until we'll try to show Donna around a little, go to IKEA maybe and find some fun things to do. But rest too.
Until next time.
