Diary of a Network Geek

Well, according to the doctor, I’m still okay.

Actually, when I finally got the results of my PET scan, the results were better than “okay”. It seems that the scar tissue on my lung from the lymphoma has actually reduced and there’s active, visible healing going on there. So, I’m clean for another three months, when I’ll do this again.

I have to admit, I was a little worried, but, I guess that’s fairly normal. My doctor was actually quite pleased with the fact that I’d put on a little too much weight since I’d seen her last. She, and her entire staff of nurses, were positively giggly over my hair and how healthy I looked in general. I do feel good, but, I’m still very aware of how out of shape I am. And, I’m leary of every little cough or anything unusual,health-wise, at all. I hope that goes away, or at least reduces in intensity, eventually.

So, in short, to recap, or, to state again in a slightly different way, I’m good.
Oh, and before I forget, my mother finally found my blog, so everyone wave and say hello!

Time!

Well, I guess to balance last weekend, I got virtually nothing done this weekend.
Okay, that’s not quite true, but I got nothing done that I planned on doing or really wanted to get done.  I did work on a cd cover for one of the Culturcide projects and see The Golden Compass, which was fairly disappointing, but everything else languished.  I blame it on the clinic visit I’m about to have.
In just a few short minutes, I’m going to wolf down some lunch and dash out the door to get blood drawn, then wait to see my oncologist.  I’m feeling…  Anxious, I guess.  Unsettled.  Tense.  I’m afraid of what the results might be from last week’s PET scan.  I’m not sure if I could take another year of chemotherapy.  I’m really not.

Oh, I also pulled some pictures off my camera, but I haven’t edited them at all to put up.  I suppose I’ll end up linking to my Filckr account and spending the minimal money for a “pro” membership.  Well, maybe after the first of the year.
