Doug has recovered from the flu and is gaining strength every day. He is back to Physical Therapy and the dreaded exercises. We even went out to lunch the other day - something we haven't done for a while. We tried a new lunch place in town and really enjoyed it.
Yesterday we went to Denver for the monthly oncology check. This time we saw the specialist's nurse practioner because the specialist was on a bicycling vacation in Italy. He always comes back refreshed and "pumped up", pardon the pun. The NP is very good; we have seen her before. Since Doug still has the peripheral neuropathy in his feet, she suggested increasing the Gabapentin dose. Currently he takes 600 mg twice a day. He will now be taking 600 mg three times a day. If he can tolerate it, that is. Gabapentin can cause dizziness and mental fog.
While in the clinic, Doug got his infusion of Zometa.
Still on chemo vacation, as long as the cancer numbers are not rising too high, and he continues to have PN.
Praise the Lord for his provision!
Love to all.
