I wanted to let you all know that I had my 6 month CT and checkup and it showed no traces of lymphoma. ;D I did have an "irritated" liver according to oncologist. But I had a blood panel done the 19th and one on the 25th and the numbers went down 10-20% so she is not concerned at this point and will see me in 3 mos. Would not even guess the reason for it.
I've heard from a couple people that sometimes something can pop up and it can be a year before I am back to "normal" - whatever that will be. I'm about 85% there just need to get the LFT #s ok, add weight, increase my stamina and grow my hair. I only got an inch of hair and not into the punk look. ;)
Right now fighing a virus going around with the sore throat, full ears and general muscle aches. I think once the rain and coolness gets out of Iowa, I will get back to an even keel. I am looking forward to actually enjoying the summer as last summer was all chemo treatments.
Thank you all for your prayers and concern. It really helped!
Pisces24 - glad to hear you got a good report from the doctor. :D
Sorry the damp, wet weather isn't helping you at the moment. In a couple months when the temperatures climb sky high, we'll be wishing it was cooler. Can't win. ;)
I've offered you before, and my offer still stands, I would be more than happy to give you some weight of mine. Wish it was that easy!
Have a great summer - and may you continue to have good reports from the doctors.

I love that "remission" word! May you regain your strength (and hair) soon, and I hope the liver report is normal at your next checkup.
Take care of yourself; I hope the virus disappears quickly!
Thank you for posting your update. Good news makes us smile ;D
You are still in my prayers!

Let's hear it for the big R - R E M I S S I O N. It has a lovely ring to it. Excellent news Pisces, so pleased for you.
Thank you everyone!
I am trying to tell myself to be patient as it takes awhile to "bounce back" from chemo. Least my weight it up a bit. It just seems like it is taking so long to get back. Like today I did extra housework and tired myself out. Before I wouldn't get tired. I am hoping to gradually build up my strength and stamina but it seems to take so durn long. :(
Dear Pisces,
I apologize because I thought I had responded to your wonderful news. Now I see I didn't earlier, so let me say "Whoo-ray!"
I'm so glad to hear your great news. ;D Great that you've gained a bit of weight.
I can imagine the patience it's taking while you "bounce back." What's so great is that you are beginning to feel better. I hope you feel more strength each day and remember that we're all rooting for ya!
Hugs,
Melinda
Pisces dear, I have you in my prayers, and so so glad to hear good news. Thank you for letting everyone know. It will be nice to hear more good news. I hope you can enjoy a wonderful summer.
I am sending you flowers, butterflies, your favorite cold drink, and your favorite foods, all with you sitting in a beautiful garden.
God Bless,
Hugs

Sorry to hear you have a virus - that stinks. Yeah the cooler, damp weather here in the NE right now has bothered me some as well - seems I feel worse on those days. But it is supposed to hit 90 tomorrow so I will be wishing for cooler weather tomorrow...cannot win with mother nature, can you?
Hang in there and hoping for continued good health with respect to your lymphoma.
