Medical update

[Bladecutter]

Finally getting some traction with the insurance plan.....lot of logistics to make sure desired providers are on same team. Almost blew it & chose plan that would have wound me up in Riverside County hospital...whew.
Have appt w primary care provider tomorrow to get bloodwork results from blood drawn 2 wks ago. Not exactly light spreed but moving. They drew 6 vials so it should be pretty comprehensive. Thr PCP will get me hooked up with Oncologist @ Loma Linda hospital. Hopefully chemo will start soon. Still losing weight, under 115 lbs @ moment. Eating a lot, but have been dealing w some intense pain.....its a job & i burn a lot of calories trying to keep up with it. Peace.......jim

One day at a time Jimi. Definitely keep your health up. Do they recommend any kind of a special diet before chemo?

 

[Kern Dog]

By PCP I am guessing that you mean Primary Care Provider and not PCP the drug?
