2016 Chemo Round 1, Day 2

Round one is a wrap! I just finished up my second treatment day of the first round of chemo without any issues. We used the same precautionary cocktails as yesterday followed by a healthy dose of  Bendeka (Treanda). I have to say that I am really amazed at how good I felt coming out of these first two days of treatment. I felt so good today that Mary Grace and I grabbed some lunch after chemo and then I went for a brief run at the Veterans Memorial Park which is only about a half mile from the Crozer Keystone Cancer Center in Broomall PA. I felt strong, I felt in control, and I felt very healthy.

Tomorrow I need to get a booster shot of Neulasta to bring my white blood count back to reality because they took a pretty serious hit yesterday and today. I then follow up with my doc on Monday just to assess the impacts and results of round one. Round two will be on 8/15 and 8/16. I feel really good and optimistic to resume some good training once I receive my Neulasta booster tomorrow.

I guess that’s it for now. I will continue to provide updates as I have them. Thanks for your support.
