I had my regular clinic visit today. Everything went well- both my PFTs and weight were stable. I have been feeling great overall since I got off of IVs mid-October, but this weekend I noticed a slight increase in SOB, cough and production. I'm keeping an eye on it. Everyone says how exhausting assessment week is... it often leads to a round of IVs. I'd rather be the exception and stay away from those!
All of the staff were excited to hear about my assessment. I had a few issues to take care of at clinic, including getting some referrals to see specialists before transplant. I also had to discuss what to take during my month off of Azli, the new antibiotic I'm on. It was decided that I'll take an oral antibiotic for the off month and see how that goes. I also had to get my monthly port flush today. It didn't flush well last time when I ended my IVs, but today it flushed easily. That was a relief! I even remembered to bring some emla to numb the skin over my port, and it worked like a charm. I didn't feel a thing!
Next visit is in one month!
