My insurance is denying coverage for the nutritionist that is apart of my oncology team but the nutritionist is helping by offering a discount to help afford the cost because i definitely need it. I was discharged from the hospital with a BMI of 17.4 supposed to be intaking 5 protein shakes a day but that is a lot of money. The nutritionist is supposed to help with my vitamin deficiencies and of course weight gain, protien intake; a lot honestly.
I had my bone marrow biopsy done last week and thankfully no cancer cells were found in my bone marrow
There are high Neutrophils, high inflammation cells that show it’s putting up a good fight against the cancer in my body.
I started having issues with my spleen last week but my team said that is common with my condition.
This week Ive had the remainder of my tests to complete before I can start chemo.
I had my infusaport put in and had my PET scan done and start chemo 4/30!!!
I’m definitely exceptionally iron deficient and anemic and know I will need some infusions before chemo can start now too.
I also have fluid around my heart but aren’t sure yet until I speak with my team about my PET results.
Thank you all so so so immensely muches for everything. Love you all. 💚🫂
