Mid-week Update

Since Jeannette's chemotherapy treatment last Thursday she had grown increasingly exhausted and unable to focus.  Finally today she and Tim went in to see the doctor, who agreed that the symptoms she was experiencing were excessive.

The doctor decided to postpone Jeannette's next chemotherapy treatment, which originally had been scheduled for tomorrow.  Instead, she will take this week off and resume chemotherapy next week.  Right now the doctor has also taken Jeannette off all the medications she was on, so they can "reset" her body and find out what may be causing her symptoms.

Jeannette received IV fluids and steroids while at the doctor's today, and she was prescribed oral steroids as well.  Already this evening Tim said she seemed more herself, so thankfully it seems like things are on an upswing again.
