Jan 28 - Chemo Postponed for a week

My kidney function wasn't where the doc wanted it to be so he decided to push back the 2nd round of chemo for a week. We're doing IV hydration for 3 days this week and we'll go back in on Monday next week and take a look at the labs again. I know I'm drinking at least 64 oz of water a day, in addition to pretty much "eating" only soups and liquid meals. By "normal" standards I should not be dehydrated but the chemo and radiation definitely screw up how the body works. I'll just have to double my efforts to increase my fluids....and stay close to a bathroom! Got my 14th Radiation treatment done this afternoon -- the machine was "down" again this morning. I'll be just past halfway through at the end of this week!
