Month 9 - another milestone

After my ninth course of azacitadine, just started, I will have a bone marrow test. If that is OK they may be able to lower my dose and / or extend the time between treatments by 1 or 2 weeks. At the moment the consultant is amazed that all my blood counts and other measurable things from blood tests are well into the normal range On the other hand the side effects of the chemo the last couple of days have been a pain in the gut, elbow and across my stomach. But I have been able to do loads of work on the farm, we are lambing, and design and implement a new web site for a neighbour Roz is doing fine. She is waiting for a chimerism test to see how her donor cells are doing on one of her blood types
