Friday, 11/12 - Calcium = Bad

Results from today's doctor's appointment were pretty good. He basically wanted to check my general condition and make sure the side effects weren't beating me down.

My side effects had diminished since feeling like poop on Monday and Tuesday, although they are still annoying. I'm more tired than I thought I would be on this new treatment cycle. My skin feels gritty. Digestive woes are a concern. And more.

My blood counts are within normal and acceptable levels. Also my calcium levels are "normal", which is fantastic. Since I have cancer in my bones, an elevated calcium level would indicate active tumors and other bad stuff. Normal calcium can only mean good things. One can hope.
