We are doing okay. Doug's hip pain is about the same. Aug 21 we drove to Colorado Springs for a follow up appt. (after the stent) with the cardiologist. Doug's heart is doing good; keep on the Plavix for a year. He wants Doug to have a lipid panel done in another two months to make sure Doug's liver is tolerating the Lipitor.
Aug 22 was the appt. with the oncologist in Salida. The myeloma blood test shows Doug is still in remission. Since Doug is still having considerable hip pain with weight bearing, the oncologist is referring Doug to a orthopedist, to see if some kind of orthopedic intervention might be wise. The orthopedic appt. is Sept 4.
Doug decided to go ahead and have eye surgery done - cataract and probably for the glaucoma too. That is scheduled for later in Sept. Since he has to sit so much, having good vision for reading is important.
Love to all.
