Let me see, 4 weeks for my leg infection, 4 weeks for the first chemo, 4 weeks for my lead up chemo for the stem cell transplant, 4 weeks for the stem cell transplant, 4 weeks for various other events, 4 weeks for chemo at the end of 2014, and around 5 weeks for this stem cell transplant. A total of around 29 weeks or 7 months!
Almost all of this was in the isolation rooms. No leaving a single room for 7 months.
They are holding up well. In fact, best they have been for a long long time. I.e., in the normal range. I can’t remember the last time they were normal.
Must have been 24 hours of continuous IV fluid at 250ml/hr that flushed them clean. Should I call it a detox? Essentially that is what it was. It was used to flush out the first chemo from my bladder and kidneys.
Finally after I don’t how many months in hospital over the last few years I have a room with a hot shower! All the others have been luke warm which is very unsatisfactory especially when there is a breeze blowing from under the shower door.
