Chemo Round 2

Luke is finished with his the third day of chemo and he's doing okay.  No nausea.  He had a slight temperature Wednesday night but nothing since.  He's been bothered by a headache and joint pain but they are staying top of it with the meds.  He got his port Wednesday and that area of his chest is tender.  Appetite is not great but he is eating.  His blood counts dropped from the chemo so got a couple of units of blood today and that seemed to help with the headache. 

Early afternoon Luke did a couple laps around the floor and played on the guitar.  Chemo followed at 3 and since chemo its been a quiet evening.

Luke hasn't talked to the transplant team but he did hear from Dr. Wells that one of the sisters is a match.  Don't know which sister, but knowing there is a match is good news as it provides another treatment option.   If Luke decides on a transplant he will still get a couple of more rounds of chemo to kill off the residual cancer cells prior to the transplant.
