Went to Atlanta for a few hours yesterday for my one monthish check up. I've been back as long as it took to get my 28 treatments. Wow. So it was basic check up like I had every Tuesday I was there. Weight, blood pressure, temp, heart rate, oxygen levels. Then a nurse asks a bunch of questions, do you have pain, discomfort, blood in urine, how often are you peeing, any question that you can think up that deals with the region down there. (this doesn't include the paperwork you fill out with all the same questions). Then a resident Oncologist comes in, and all the same questions are asked, yes, they are thorough. Final Dr. Goodette arrives and asks several of the same questions. Everything is progressing as it should, still run down at the end of the day, still some shortness of breath, I did drop down my Flomax intake from twice a day to once. We will see how it goes.
Next I fly back in March, and this is when they start taking blood and checking my PSA.
