Today was to have been my fifth chemo treatment, unfortunately my platelet count from yesterday’s blood test was too low. Another test today showed an increase but still below the threshold for treatment.
So, I’m deferred to early next week, assuming my count recovers as expected.
Met with my oncologist today and he is pleased with how I’ve been tolerating the chemo and my general condition. I did a 40 mile bike ride Tuesday, he smiled about that.
Everything has been going per plan thus far and I’ve sort of scheduled my immediate life around the every other Thursday though Saturday regimen. In the grand scheme of things, this isn’t a big deal but I’m bummed about this little setback. Apparently I need to be reminded, it’s not my plan.
Have a wonderful weekend Mark. See you very soon. Safe travels!
