Doug had his monthly Denver myeloma specialist visit last week. The cancer numbers - Lambda light chains in Doug's case - are starting to rise a bit faster. But the Kappa light chains are also rising, so the Kappa/Lambda ratio is within normal limits for now. As long as the ratio is okay, Dr. M doesn't want to start the new chemo yet. Sounds good to us!
The peripheral neuropathy in his feet is still present, but Doug is able to cope with it. Dr. M says we have the option of trying Cymbalta, but we decided against it for now. Better not to add another drug to his system unless he really needs it.
Summer is in full swing here, with the usual influx of summer people. Traffic is busy by our small town standards, and our only grocery store is swamped. Best not to complain too much since the tourists spend a lot and that helps our tax base.
We have started geocaching again after several years of Doug not being able to do it. Fun way to get outside and be more active.
Love to all.
