Back In The Normal Range

Good news!!!!! Randy had blood work on Tuesday and the creatinine level was 1.8 which is in the normal range for him. It must have been an hydration issue as we had hoped.

Side effects are not too bad. They don't seem to be any worse at 100mg than at 75mg. I'm not sure what that all means, but we will take what we can get. Next Tuesday, he is scheduled for blood work and another CAT Scan. We are hoping that Dr. Ahmed will try to work him back to the 150mg level. He had originally thought that 100mg would be his maximum dose, but he may reconsider since Randy seems to be tolerating 100mg better than expected. We will just have to wait and see. It seems like we are doing alot of that lately.

Thank you to everyone for your continued concern. I know that as time goes on, everyone gets caught up in their daily routines, but you have continued to call, email and send cards with well wishes. These are so important to Randy's will to continue to fight this battle. Some days are really tough and then the phone rings or the mail arrives and he sees that we are not in this alone.

Through everything, Psalm 34:8 keeps resounding in my mind. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man who trusts in Him. Please continue to pray for us.

Randy & Sue
