Don't Waste Today Being Scared of Tomorrow
Thank you all for praying for my appointments yesterday! Although our prayers weren't answered exactly as we had asked, I'm still happy with the results for now. Despite our prayers, all three of my liver enzymes were up even higher than at my last appointment. However, I was still able to get treatment! I didn't know this, but the chemo itself could be the cause of my increased liver enzymes. While significantly elevated liver enzymes are still an issue for my health, it doesn't necessarily indicate the cancer is spreading in my liver. So we're holding on to that for the time being and just reducing the dose of chemo I receive. Then, as long as my scans on Monday are stable, I can stay on this drug at the reduced dose. I would love to do that (better the devil you know...), and perhaps a reduced dose also means reduced side effects?? 🙏 Prayers for Monday's scans are greatly appreciated! I go in at 3:00 PM. Yesterday, I also had an appointment with dermatology...
