Had my first Avistan infusion this week. Easy breezy, no side effects during the process or in the days following. These are now scheduled for every two weeks with a MRI/NO appointment every month. I have also been taking decadron steroid for the brain swelling. This makes me hungry, I then eat too much and get indigestion.
I have been doing financial planning on how to handle the insurance money, making sure all the accounts and passwords are written down, etc. The estate planning process is complicated with all the different types of wills and trusts, then when I see it after a lawyer write it down it I have little idea that it meets my intention. The proceeds are to support Holly through her retirement. Our marriage has been the classic Breadwinner/Bacon Cook. I want to keep that commitment in which she has few worries about money.
Physically, I have been having some serious problems in my left leg. About 6 months ago I started getting charlie horses in my calf. These would be so violent I would walk gingerly for a week afterwards from the pulled muscles. Now they are triggered from the simplest foot movement. I fear pointing my toes even when doing so to put my shoes on. Sometimes it starts just out of the blue. Yesterday it spread up my leg, lasted about 10 minutes and left me with a disoriented feeling afterword for a couple hours. Not sure this relates to the tumor, but sure is suspicious.
Ready for pumpkin spice?
