Counts Are High

I went to the oncologist office today and my blood work showed high levels of white blood cell counts, which is great news.  They are ultra high right now but will come down to normal levels over the course of the next few days.  The Neustra did its job and I will now have the shot 24 hours after ever chemo treatment so that we don't jeopardize my white blood cell count again.  The shot comes with its own set of side effects, similar to the chemo side effects but is well worth it to stay healthy.  

My head rash is healing well and tumor is looking good.  I made a joke with the doctor today that my goal is for the tumor to be the size of a pea when chemo is done.  And she said that she thinks it will be undetectable and the surgeon will have to do an MRI before surgery to know where it is located and they can use the marker that was inserted at the time of the biopsy.  I was so excited when she said that, the chemo is working its magic and is the news is so promising.  

Gained two pounds since last Thursday so the Four Seasons brunch did the trick.... 

I am feeling back to fabulous and loving every minute of it.  

Have a great night and I will talk to you soon.
