So we went in and he got his Bleomycin last Friday. His counts were awesome and he was having a good day. I was the one who actually fell asleep waiting for the Physician Assistant. We went and had mexican food after and then went home and took a nap. He then headed out with his Dad and rode a motorcycle around First Colony and visited some friends. He was so happy he got to ride. We had another good day Saturday and a Great day on Sunday. He did pretty good today as well. I attribute this to the Neupogen shots keeping up the blood counts.
The only side effects that he has had so far are truly!!! awful smelling gas (not that this is terribly different from normal.), some tinnits (ringing is his ears), he is having problems tasting his food. So anything with a really strong flavor is what he is craving now. Well we go back in on Friday for more Bleomycin. Wohoo, but the next week we go in for round 3 of inpatient chemo. Its getting closer to being done. Its insane how quickly yet incredibly slowly this time is going. I will update when we have more to say.
