Get used to disappointment...

I was hoping that the results of the test to see if there was still an inordinate amount of protein in my urine would be negative, but unfortunately that's not the case. I kind of expected it though. The Lonsurf that I'm taking can do some pretty whacked out things with your body and a week isn't enough to undo that kind of damage. Even Kim, the nurse collecting the sample, seemed bummed by the result.

So I get to spend tomorrow collecting urine again (see previous episode) to figure out just how much protein is in there. Not the way that I wanted to spend tomorrow for sure, but I'm taking it with gratitude and patience. This journey with cancer is just that - a journey. It's going to have its ups and downs. On the plus side my white blood count was higher because of the Zarxio shots, but still not to where it was before.

Ever onward.
