You said you’re going ba k and forth. AML is inpatient as they need to bring your wbc to zero. What is your treatment protocol? I had 7+3.
Two days after my diagnosis I was checked in the hospital for 5 days. I had four blood transfusions, two spinal taps in addition to daily chemo IV drip and in pill form. Then I was released.
Now they found traces of cancer cells in my spinal area. I have to back to the hospital for 7-10 days where I’ll be getting chemo injections via spinal tap every other day.
None of this is particularly painful. I haven’t experienced side effects to speak of, other than some fatigue. I don’t even feel sick. The future is filled with uncertainty, especially the next two months.
