We had a great trip to Maui and I survived my first airplane trip without getting sick! I decided to wear a mask on the way there just to be safe. It was five hours of annoyance so I didn't wear it on the flight back home. On the way home, there was a lady a row over coughing her lungs up and I thought I would for sure get sick but my immune system did well and I was fine! We spent five days in Maui and I enjoyed every second. We went whale watching, I had a massage and best of all, I ate really yummy food the entire trip. I am sure I gained at least 10 pounds! We were super busy the entire trip and stayed up late every night and by the last night, I was exhausted. I joked to Joe that I needed a vacation from our vacation!
Last week I had a clinic visit and saw Dr. Bzowej. It was a good visit but not a perfect one like my last couple of visits. My ALT number( a liver test) has doubled and while it's within normal range, it's something that we will need to keep a close eye on to make sure it doesn't rise any higher. She didn't seem to worried but the perfectionist in me isn't happy with that news. My WBC seems to be less dramatic so we are decreasing my neupogen shots again. Hopefully my WBC will cooperate and I can slowly be weaned off those shots. I don't mind giving myself injections but the side effects SUCK so I am very happy we trying again to reduce them.
