Good counts are back and gossip too

I went in yesterday to get my counts checked and they were good.
WBC 10.7
HgB 12.4
platelets 202

I have been having an increasing problem over the past couple of days, though. The pain and swelling under my left arm has returned and now I have some pain in my back/shoulderblade area and chest. Some of those nodes must be congested. I talked to my nurse Ann again about changing the way we're doing prednisone. I'll see Dr L next Monday morning before I'm scheduled to have chemo.

I think I've been making great strides in emotional healing and joy-finding department, because of a certain someone, who shall remain nameless just in case he reads this. Don't want him getting a swelled head or anything. :-)

Oops... Guess it will be open season for various relatives and friends teasing me now. Jeez. Just because I'm going around with a goofy smile on my face half the time... Oh well, I shall take it with good grace and rise above it all, my red face notwithstanding.
