I go in on Tuesday for a doc visit and blood draw. They will be checking my blood counts to see if I need a transfusion or not. I am thinking I won't, since my body is feeling stronger than it has in months and I am not plagued with side effects, at least so far. I think my neuropathy is easing up a little, too. My fingertips don't feel like someone is pinching them so much and my feet are feeling slightly less like my socks are full of sand. I have been getting swollen ankles and parts of the top of my feet, though. I need to remember to ask if I can have grapefruit again, since most of my meds and the chemo stuff make it off limits. When it gets warmer out, I just love a cold glass of grapefruit juice. Over in Denmark, they have very good grapefruit sodas, too.
