It's been a long time! There hasn't been much to report though--just tired of lugging oxygen tanks or cords with me everywhere I go and feeling rather tired and weak. It's pretty common for me to sleep in every morning until about 10 a.m., and I'm pretty content to just sit and be a couch potato. This is not who I'm used to being. I hope it gets better.
My appetite has fully returned. Now it doesn't seem like any smells or thoughts of any foods turn my stomach any longer. I just have to be careful to increase my activity so that I can keep getting healthier and stronger and keep losing weight.
$135.776.31. Want to know what LDS Hospital charges for three weeks of inpatient treatment for a bone marrow transplant? $135.776.31 and that doesn't cover all of the specialists in a hospital that bill separately. That's just the hospital's portion. And our portion? $0.00. Hooray for insurance and for meeting out-of-pocket maximums earlier in the year!
My 100th day since transplant was yesterday. It's a big milestone that the doctors track, so I'll be meeting with them on the 19th of December. Hopefully, I'll get to stop taking antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal medication then. More things to look forward to :-)
Yeah Happy 100th day!
