Guest guest Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Vicki, This is really great news. I hope your anemia responds quickly and hopefully you will be feeling tons better soon. Normal in your situation is a beautiful word. Shirley > > I did talk to my oncologist today and was given a special mouth wash as well as told to rinse twice a day with peroxide. Hopefully that helps. My appointment with my Rheumy is the 19th and if it is not better he wants me to also discuss it with her. My records from today were faxed there as well. > > Blood tests today showed normal T blood cells, meaning that the good cells are taking over the cancer cells. Great news for me as it means once again the chemo has and is working. If things keep going the way they are I will be able to go off chemo in 4 weeks. The perfect Christmas Gift. > > I do have a very low blood count so my folic acid and D vitamins were upped even higher, and iron was added. But all in all I could not have asked for a better day. Now I can focus more on the RA and managing the pain from it. > > Vicki > Iowa > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us know how it all goes with your Rheumy on the 19th. I also hope the mouthwash, peroxide and extra vitamins help, too.............Doreen I did talk to my oncologist today and was given a special mouth wash as well as told to rinse twice a day with peroxide.
