Weeks Update..

The appointment with the specialist went really well! He was very thorough in his exam and asked many questions. I was very happy and felt very confident in him. I am going to have him work with my doctor right now until my treatment is over and then switch to him. I am in the middle of treatment so that is why I don't want to switch right now. I also found out I have fibromyalgia and acid reflux. So he gave me new pain medicine to help with that. My body doesn't feel like it is on constant fire anymore, just at night a little bit.

I have lost a lot of hair and I will continue to lose more. So my amazing parents bought me a wig yesterday. It looks really natural and makes me feel better about going out. I feel really pretty in it and confident. It's long and voluminous! It's closer to my natural hair color with highlights in it. I love it!

I have treatment again next week. I'm ready to start feeling better. I feel like lately I have more bad days than good. And I am always so tired..I need energy! Dr. V (the new dr) said we won't know if the treatment worked until having 6 months of it. Next week will be my half way point. He also noticed I lost more muscle than I realized and his main concern is to get me strong again.
