Well, my CA-125 number went down slightly to 23. My appointment went fine again. We talked a bit about my allergic reaction but other than that, not much to report. They are still seeing the same spot on my scans but it appears to be about the same size.

At my last appointment they gave me another premedication regimen for my next ct - scan which adds me taking a Zantac pill an hour before the scan with the Benadryl and Prednisone. I had M&M drive me again. Unfortunately they were running behind and I ended up having to wait an extra 45 minutes or so before they finally took me back. When I was waiting for my oral contrast I had M&M run down to the pharmacy to pick up some Benadryl for me - which I am supposed to take an hour before the scan.

My reaction was pretty similar once again, although I didn't throw up this time which was good. I got super flushed again and one hive appear on one leg. They allowed me to just wait out in the waiting room for about a 1/2 hour to make sure I didn't have any more reactions. The bottoms of my feet felt really itchy but that didn't last too long.
