Eight weeks later -- 23 pounds lighter and cancer free.
Last week I went back to the hospital with a 103 degree fever. No other symptoms existed. No pain, no nausea, no anything - just a fever. I had a CT scan of my lungs and guts; a sonogram of the neo-bladder and blood work done. All came back normal. But this left the reason for the fever unresolved.
I stayed overnight in the hospital and just today was told that my urine specimen yielded evidence of a bacterial infection in the bladder. It would be eliminated with strong antibiotics - of which I will take orally for the next week.
Other than this episode, all has been smooth and I've had no problems.
Great news! And you look great in the picture - I hope everything continues to improve...and be sure to take all of the antibiotics.
