Doctor visit 7-8-08

Posted by Eve on July 8, 2008

Good, good news! 

I just finished my 7th cycle of CC-4047 (derivative of Revlimid) plus Dex, and my numbers are so low that my doc has said that I’ve achieved a complete response.  I know that there is still a very tiny amount of cancer in my body, but I feel so good about taking this regimen of drugs, that I really don’t even worry about it.

My foot is feeling better, but I’m still in the boot for another three weeks.  I hope that I’ll be able to get rid of it after my x-ray on 7/29, but I’d rather be completely healed before I start wearing regular shoes again.
