LIVING WITH CANCER 2020

It's been several months, since I posted anything here...

I am not sure why that is other than when I write about my illness, I tend to think about my illness and those types of memories are not always the best to have...

Well...  here is what's happened since my last post.

Due to a shortage in IVIG, I was removed from the schedule since my illness and low immune system was not life threatening.  About 3 months ago, I started having sinus infections, resulting in me going to the clinic about every 6 weeks for antibiotics and a steroid shot.  My last episode caused me to lose my voice due to all the sinus drainage.  

I mentioned this problem to my Oncologist who sent me for a CT scan of my sinuses only to find NOTHING REMARKABLE...  so, I am destined to live with this for now or until I can get put back on the IVIG schedule.

Meanwhile, my 6 month check-up with my family physician revealed not only that my prostate was enlarged but that my PSA test results were twice the number they were last year...   so, now I am off to see a urologist to be tested for prostate cancer.

Right now, I cannot seem to get motivated to do much of anything and this lack of motivation is one of the reasons why I have not posted anything in so long...
