another chemo day

I went to chemotherapy again today. I go in around 2:00 , have blood drawn then go get an IV. It takes about 20 minutes to get the Decadron to drip in without giving me "ants in my pants." If they give it too fast thats how it feels. Then I get Valcade as an IV push. Since I have not lost any more hair than when I started and I don't have any nausea, I can't say it is so bad.
My blood levels are getting back to near normal. They did a bone marrow biopsy Monday and the results are not in. The doctors will ajust my medicines if the results don't show enough progress. This is to get me ready for my stem cell transplant in May or June.
I will post again with pictures of all the nurses pictures when I can. They are all so nice to all the patients there. It would be hard to see patients all day that were all facing cancer.
Love you all
Bob
