Update 10/24
Hey guys, just checking in. Hoping to be done tomorrow morning. Been a rough week. Today is an all day appointment. In between consults now. They ran a test on my lower back and hips deteriorating yesterday and threw me into spasms. OMG PAINFUL!!!! Ended up getting shots, muscle relaxers, an anti inflammatory drugs. Wasn't much relief tho. It's better this morning somewhat. Lower spine and hips are shot. Deteriorating has not slowed at all. Injection fillers today I hope...
Flunked the sleep test 2 times. They say I'm averaging 2 to 2 1/2 hours a night of solid sleep. They are upset that the bladder stimulater isn't functioning at all. So. Hoping to get it removed before the probe wires completely fuse into the spine. I figured it wasn't working.
They have planned a chemo schedule and dosage for the luekemia that's sounds hopeful. And are working out a way to do the soft tissue chemo along with it. Competitive cancer sucks!!!!
The mutated cell study has come along very well. The dr. Said it's a tricky one...I was confused with some of the explanation, but he is dumbing it down for me( my words not his). We will talk more in morning, but I don't care if I understand it as long as they do!!!!
Heading to next test and appointment so I'll check back later. Live like there is nothing holding you back!!!! Love ya all!!

"Hi folks. Here's an update from my surgery on Aug. 20th till this week. I'm calling bullpoop, but cooperating as best I can.....again!!!! The surgery ( on stomach and intestines for areas in question went well, until after a week I was still bleeding pretty strong. Back to dr., he had to go in and re-stitch...no sign of stitches from the surgery day...can you say S.O.B. ouch? I can!!!!!
Then phone call came from test that white count was out of control!!!! Cancer somewhere else going unnoticed. I'd treated leukemia before and it, well, stabilized till now. Back on chemo to for leukemia. Last time they hit it hard for about 6 weeks. Then I went back to my old chemo for the Rhabdomyosarcoma ( soft tissue sarcoma). We had planned to restart old chemo originally next week...but not now...need to hit the leukemia really hard first. Drs. all want another trip to Mayo's, but it's just not in the budget with the economy as it is. So grow slow please Mr. Sarcoma, grow slow!!!!
I'm ok, just really tired-treatment sucks cause of strength, really hurting and kinda short fused!! No tolerance to noise, bright lights. So if I have my bitch face on and seem grumpy, please try to understand!!! Thanks for all the prayers and love guys!!"
