Doing alright but can't deal with the heat. Staying inside staying cool. Waiting for all this to start happening to me. Go in Friday 7-29-16 received shots from UPS in cooler. Go to hospital with them show how to use them. And start that for 3-4 days. Loosens up morrow to remove from me. Then 2-3 days removing. Then set date for transplant. Long process 2-3 weeks. 2 months recovery at home. Live by self lot on my mind. What comes next? Feeling great now 4 weeks off Chemo. Doctors said did great no other problems at all. never got sick did good.
How did it go at the hospital on Friday? I hope it went well and you're managing ok by yourself after they showed you how to use them.
