Update from the Chemo Room! Good news!

Well my PSA is down again.....to 71 which is only 10 pts but as a percentage it's good. Not much action in the chemo room today......still not sure if empty chairs are good or bad....where did they go??? Died or cured? I had really hoped to get a break but it appears I still have a ways to go...Damn! The good news is that the dreaded NADIR has not been as bad these last few times so I'm hopeful for that.....the worst part is having to force feed myself...like a seal! the Doc says he continues to be amazed at my progress...I reminded him that I wasn't an ordinary guy, he may have smiled...hard to tell. The tongue bite that I got right after my 2nd or 3rd treatment is still a bother I think I keep irritating it because so often when I eat I'm just "wolfing it down" because it taste so bad. I have become a very slow eater now...probably a good thing Whoa! Somebodys' cell phone went off....really loud...the ring tone was church bells!!!!!..Not a good sound in the CHEMO ROOM!!! Freaks everybody out..come on people get with the program!!!
It's amazing that my voice changes to froggy while I'm sitting here. I will be in touch with "Back from # 100..I mean 10, just feels that way! LOL Thank you for the spiritual thoughts and prayers, B.
