Treatment # 2

Today was treatment # 2. Kyle came with me and Mandy dropped us off and picked us up.

It did not go quite as smooth as I hoped it would. First, they had trouble locating the port and the 2 nurses could not agree where it was. Apparently, it has shifted position and both nurses missed it. A third attempt was successful, but the first 2 stabs left a stinging feeling. The treatment itself went pretty smoothly, and we were done in less than 3 hours.

For supper tonight, we headed to Swiss Chalet for their rotisserie chicken. I again have a touch of heartburn, and I forgot to get my script filled yesterday. Oh well, I guess it will be Pepto tonight.

I got my blood numbers. For those who know these things, they are:

LKC (white) 5.5
ERC (red) 4.60
HB (hemoglobin) 128
PLT (platelets) 272
Neut# 3.6
