results from blood work

Great News!!! My blood numbers were low and no problems. YEA! I communicated with my Oncologist via text. He text-ed me the following:" Labs were great Ca-127,CA-129 (breast cancer markers) was 16, CA-125 (ovarian cancer marker) was 15. All others also normal. LDL 103 HDL 55 Total chol 182 NF " I text-ed him back and waiting for an answer to confirm that NF means no findings. I was also wondering why I still have numbers for ovarian marker since I had all my organs removed. I assume there are some hormones left  in my body. I don't have my calcium, vitamin D, red and white blood count numbers. I will get a copy of the blood work faxed to me. My cholesterol was 174 last time so its up a little. I need to eat better and exercise more.
I will confirm with him if I still need to see him in the office.

I will chat with all of you soon. Enjoy your week and relax as much as you can, for a healthy body

Blood work

Wow! I knew its been awhile since I wrote in my blog but I didn't realize this long. I hope everybody is having a wonderful summer!
Today I had my blood drawn for my six month check-up. I had to fast since I was getting my cholesterol checked. It was the first time, I walked into the lab and didn't have to wait. That was great!!! They took four vials of blood.

I am feeling good, not too much new with my health. I am still taking Tamoxifen. I am starting to get night sweats in the middle of the night again. I  think when Summer is here it makes a big difference since I didn't have too many night sweats in the Winter. Lucky we do have a/c.

Chat soon, I will update my information in a few days when I get my blood results.
