File this under the "no news is good news" category. Marye had chemo two weeks ago and is on the usual cycle. So, that's a good thing. General fatigue, but not too bad. Last time we talked to the doctor about her severe fatigue over the summer, and she gave us some tips about getting on a better schedule with the Ritalin and taking it more regularly. Since then, Marye's made an effort to get up earlier and take the Ritalin when she should. The plan seems to be working.
We haven't had any indicators of the cancer tumor markers in a while-- Dr. Riley wanted to start checking them every three months, to coincide with the CT scan. So, this week, we'll get the tumor markers checked, and the CT scan is scheduled for the first week of September. It feels as if we're getting settled down into a long-term, chronic treatment cycle. Crossing our fingers that it remains that way. Again, someday, we'll get the word that the Taxol isn't working anymore, and we'll have to change drugs. That day isn't here, yet. So life goes on.
So, that's it. Chemo this week with tumor marker check. I'll post that info when I get it. Until then, I hope everyone is well.
