As most of you know, I use this blog as a journal, and I forgot something from the other day when I went to see the Oncologist (well, Margot, the PA). I hope I get to see Dr. Northfelt soon. I am not fond of Margot, and she needs to work on her bedside manners! From what I understand, my white blood counts were really high due to the Neulasta shot I am receiving on the day after Chemo Treatments. This is good, except it intensifies my bone and joint pain more. I received another piece of information that I now have Lymphedema in my right arm and will have to wear a compression sleeve; I was really hoping this would not happen; I think the sleeve will be so hot in the summer months. Also, since I was just talking to a friend of mine Colette Cole who also suffers from Lymphedema in her leg, we had quite a conversation about it, and the following week I found out I have it. I will deal with it, and it could be worse.
