November 21, 2014.. Today was uneventful. We moved from our hotel room at Guest House Inn to the Home Away From Home apartment. It is in a nice location in sort of a country setting. The apartment complex is gated and a pass code is required to get through the gate. Our apartment is very nice. It is the nicest and largest we have ever had here. We feel very fortunate to get it even if it is for only a short time.
I just got notice that my test results were available online for my bone marrow biopsy. There are so medical terms in it, I can't understand most of what is in the report but the best I can tell, the myeloma is better than it has been. It appears the percent plasma that was 15 percent at one time to 5 percent now. The M spike was over 5 at one time and is now 2.5. The desired result on both of these is zero. The Kyprolis seems to be working. I will know more about my whole situation when I talk to the doctor on Monday.
We have to be at UAMS in the morning at 6:30 for a PET scan. We plan to get up at 4 in order to get ready, drive there and find the right place in the hospital. I will be injected with the radioactive glucose and then wait for about 45 minutes before the PET scan. I can't have anything to eat or drink after midnight other than water. I am so glad I can have water. That is the only test I have tomorrow so we should have plenty of resting time.
Today was drizzling rain all day with more rain forecast for tomorrow.
Praise God for more good reports!!! Praying for continued good health.
