Who’s the wise guy who typed “Beth Morgan death” into a search engine?

TV Star

Joyce Wells appeared on “Tarheel Talk” this morning with Dr. Robert Orlowski (UNC)! They talked about MM.

Way to go, Joyce! You did a great job. How many mg of xanax did you take before the show? :)

Tomorrow

Tomorrow I’ll check in at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center at 9 am. I’ll have blood drawn. At 10 I’ll go to have a Neostar triple lumen catheter put in. I’m not sure what’s on the agenda for the rest of the day, except I’ll have some Cytoxan. On Thursday I’ll have some more Cytoxan. On Friday I’ll go home. I’m NOT looking forward to this. It better be worth it.

In memory of Chris Hollyer

I received a note from one of Chris’s friends in New Zealand today that Chris has passed on. It appears Chris had a heart attack, and that’s all I know at this time. Please consider making a donation to the IMF so we can find a cure for MM and they can continue to provide excellent services for patients and caregivers. He would be happy for that, for all of us who are still here. There’s a link to make a donation to the left.

Unfortunately, treatments for MM can cause damage to vital organs, including the heart. MM itself can cause damage to organs and systems. Please make sure to get regular checkups, and include visits to the cardiologist. In fact, a recent study showed that patients treated with a specific drug called doxorubicin can experience a decline in heart health over the years. Please keep yourselves healthy in preparation for a cure!

Cardiologist

Do you know how hard it is to get an appointment with a cardiologist in a town full of old people? I faxed the report from Wake Forest to my local cardiologist. He was someone I saw a few times starting in 1998 when I was experiencing PVCs. They’re benign, but annoying. They pop up whenever I have caffeine, sugar, don’t get enough sleep, have too much stress or even before I catch a cold or something. I’ve had to give up caffeine.

Anyway, I have an appointment with him on the 25th of September. I’ll see what he says. I’ll just feel better having my heart checked out every now and then. We don’t know what all these meds could be doing to us.
