Day 60

Dr. Morris said I look good for day 60. The only gripe is my kidneys do not like to prograf. Today's number was even higher at 1.6. Now I will get 2ltrs of fluids and continue to drink more and more at home. No, we cannot stop prograf.

We sent away for the chimerism test that will measure how the donated cells are engrafting. Results will be back in a week.

Yesterday I did I some filing: squat, stand, repeat. I went really slowly, but at the end got a little dizzy.  This morning my blood pressure was low (85/68) and my heart rate was high (145). I rested a while and it came back normal. They I was given a walk test to check the oxygen level. 99% at rest, and 99 after walking. No problems.

I just need to eat and drink well. My PA, Maria asked if Mom was in town. I said not yet. Next week. Apparently that's the only caregiver she trusts. I am on the eating stimulant, but it really hasn't taken hold yet. Nothing sounds good yet. I am sick of soup and oatmeal.  The new neighborhood Browns made beef stew. That was good. Thank you for sending a portion my way. It was big enough for two portions for me.

I am sick of my tiny stomach. It shrank. I just have to take lots of little meals.

Hair progress


None.  But eyebrows are coming back.
