There is always something!!!! Mood
Thursday, May 29, 2008 | A General Update story

The good news is Marlene has been able to do her gardening.  Also she is in remission. She has been able to reduce her pain meds but not completely because of the pain in her back and shoulders.  This is the damage MM did.   The bad news is she has a lump in she left breast.  Her blood pressure has gone high and she has some swelling on her left side.  She had an ultrasound yesterday to check for a clot, there is none.  She has a mamogram and ultrasound on her left breast today.  Marlene does not have to have a second transplant but will be going on maintenance drugs because of translocation 4-14.  Well there always seems to be something going on.  Hope to find out soon what is going on.
