This week has been a up and down week. Most days, I didn't have too much energy but no nausea! I had my blood test today and my CEA count came a little down!
However, my bilirubin has been slowly creeping up and it was at 3.2 today (normal range is 1.2). Hence, I can't take the stronger chemo I've been taking until my bilirubin comes down and the other chemo drug, they want to hold off this week since I had the bleed during my endoscopy. My oncologist was out this week, so I'll touch base with him next week to see what the plan would be. I may be taking a different chemo until it comes back down. So, no chemo this week! 😀
I also had paracentesis this week and they took out 3.5L. I feel much lighter!
Please pray that my bilirubin would start trending down again and, also, wisdom for the plan going forward. I'm also still toying with the idea of visiting my 90 year old grandmother in Japan now that Japan has opened up to tourists. Please pray for wisdom for that as well.
I really appreciate all the prayers from all of you!
