Nothing much to report again. Chemo continues as usual on the same three-week cycle. Dex is now down to 20mg per week and - as happened during first line - the sleeplessness effect is not as strong as it was. So haven't been up until 4am or so for a while now.
The abscess is just about fully healed now, no longer a pain on sitting and I've been able to do a couple of longish car journeys without needing a cushion. I think we can write that little incident off as in he past now.
As for the future, next week includes no fewer than three blood test appointments: one on Monday before my next Zometa, one on Tuesday before Wednesday's chemo, and one on Friday from the GP surgery after my "Long Term Conditions Review" last week. Good thing I live little more than five minutes walk away from the test centre and can park right outside with my Blue Badge if necessary. So if this turns out to be my last ever post, you'll know what happened. Unexpected death due to loss of blood...
A little more realistically, I'll be interested to see my Hba1c (diabetes) result, because I've lost a lot of weight since the last one, which should mean a big improvement and getting well clear of the "pre-diabetes" danger zone. I hope.
