I Love My Husband

Okay, so hubby and I went to his doctor appointment today. Here’s all I know in a nutshell.

The lymph nodes under his arm has gone down, his spleen has not. Part of his enlarged spleen is dead from lack of circulation. He was denied on a trial because his counts weren’t good enough.

Oh, and apparently he had a heart attack in the back of his heart.... they were not aware of this until they looked at the EKG he had done a month ago... oops! So now they set him up with a cardiologist this week.

He isn’t improving enough for a bone marrow transplant... thus far.

Because we asked a sh!tload of questions like “is this treatment working? Will it get better? Do we need to prepare ourselves?” The Cancer Center will have a round table discussion of my husband’s case and our doctor will talk to us on May 2nd about our next steps. We may continue with our treatments as they are or they’ll change them up?

I feel like we asked more questions but I still don’t feel like I know anything more... except about the heart attack and his spleen having a dead portion.

Thank y’all for continued prayers and support! I adore my SW friends and family and nice scary Dominants too!!!

Hey hun. How did your May 2 appointment go?

@Klt3sHottie Update: Things are going really good! The hold up now is getting a stress test scheduled! His insurance don't want to cooperate and a LOT is needing that done! For one he has a fistula that needs surgery.... but can't until stress test. AND he needs a bone marrow transplant.... but needs the stress test AND surgery on fistula FIRST!

But his numbers are improving!!!!! YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳
