Update

Well, all of a sudden I am breathing normally and my appetite is almost normal.
I think that the break from Xeloda has helped and it is finally out of my system.
I see the doctor again on March 5th, I think she will change my medication. We will see what happens then.
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers.

Short of Breath

The past couple of weeks have not been fun. I have been exhausted and totally out of breath. After several tests, it was decided that I needed another blood transfusion. I went in on Friday and was admitted to HMC. I checked in at 10 AM and was released at 7:15 PM. The longest transfusion that I have heard of to date. I seem to feel better, but I am scheduled for a Pulmonary Function Test, a Blood Test and a visit with the doctor next Friday. The doctor seems to be concerned that my blood counts are not low enough for my shortness of breath.
More to come come next week.

THANKS for the thoughts and Prayers
