Got a clear report for my CT scan today.  That's 3 in a row (actually 4 if you count the one immediately following my surgery).  I guess you can say that I have been 6 months cancer free now.  First I need to make it to the 2 year mark to be in remission and then the 5 year mark to be considered really cancer-free.  Keeping our fingers crossed and happy thoughts!!

DH and I decided to try taking the UTA Trax to my appointment today.  We figured that it would take about an hour train ride from the stop near our house and then 15-20 minutes to get from the last stop to the Huntsman center.  My mom got to our house a little more than an hour and a half before my appointment.  DH and I walked to the station and made it with about a minute or two to spare.  It took a little over 50 minutes to get to the last stop and then we crossed the street to the bus stop in front of Primary Children's Medical Center.  While I was trying to figure out if that was the right place to catch the campus bus to the Huntsman center, the shuttle bus that we needed pulled up and it was just a short drive up to our stop.  We got to the clinic about 30 minutes before my appointment - pretty good timing!!

Once we got to the clinic I checked in and figured that we would have to wait for a little bit before they took us back, but we had just barely sat down in the waiting room when they called my name.  Once we were put into one of the examination rooms, it wasn't too long before one of the doctors came in and looked me over and then my main doctor came in.  They asked if I wanted a flu shot and I said that I would think about it and let them know next time I come in.  I showed them the rash on my arm and they don't think that it is related to my treatments but to keep an eye on it - and try some hydrocortisone cream on it.  I have been using a Benadryl cream on it but I'm not sure if it has hydrocortisone in it or not.  I will have to check when I get home.  I also mentioned my bleeding gums and they said to just keep and eye on that as well.  Maybe I need to make an appointment with my dentist (althought that is not one of my more favorite places to visit).  One thing that they didn't give me was my CA-125 number.  I may have to call into the office tomorrow to find that out.

We got finished with the doctor pretty quickly and then went up to the cafe to get some lunch before we headed to the infusion room.  Now I am just waiting for the Avastin from the pharmacy so they can get it started.
