Yes, I still blog. Like I said before though, good news is boring. I have been on chemo holiday for 5 weeks now. That is five weeks without evil chemicals and the after effects. Five weeks of not worrying about my blood sugar levels or the ups and downs from the chemicals and preps of chemo treatment. That is over now. Tuesday I go in for the CT scan and blood tests to find out if my CA19s are good or better or lower, if the cancer is growing or shrinking and all that stuff that I put out of my mind for 5 weeks.

I feel fine and I am putting on weight still. My blood sugars, when I check them, are good, still below 200. I had one at 100 the other day. My bodily functions are normal. I really don't think I have anything to worry about. But I also didn't worry before I was diagnosed and that almost killed me. Believe me, nothing has been the same since I was diagnosed. I don't take much of anything for granted anymore. So I am worried or at least concerned about the results.

I take the tests this week and I will get the results on Monday, September 21. I will post the results here when I get them. The options are: Bad news, I'm back on chemo because either the the cancer started growing again or The CA19s are decreased and they see no growth in the cancer so I get 6 more weeks off. Kinda like the groundhog, 6 more weeks of winter or spring begins. Only with more dire consequences if he does see his shadow.
