Round Four
My last infusion was on July 14 and it was a rough one. One side effect it left me with was watering eyes, trying to read anything has been pretty difficult as a result. Another side effect is pins and needles in my hands and feet, especially in my fingers, making it difficult to type. I've also been very tired and the heat and humidity haven't helped much. I have surgery in the morning which also has my anxieties flaring. So, I haven't been in here for some time.

But, in general, I'm doing great, better than expected. Now I'll be in the hospital for at least a week and possibly up to two weeks, depending on how fast I heal. I'm going to try and heal up as quickly as possible, but other than following the doctor's instructions and staying positive, there isn't much I can do to speed up the process.

I'm not sure how soon I'll be up to logging in here again, but I will try and post an update about how the surgery turns out as soon as I'm up to it. I do have a very good surgeon, and he's done quite a few of these.

For now, it's off to rest up and get ready. I'm scheduled for first thing in the morning and have to be in Fargo by five o'clock. That means up around two and on the road about three.
