I'm finally getting around to posting - I've thought to several times, but never got around to it.
I spent the first week of July in Costa Rica. What a great place! I love the culture, the people, the terrain. Jodi got to spend the whole month there learning Spanish and playing.

I had my last chemo (Avastin) in mid-July. Since then, had a clear CT scan. The last few Avastin infusions seemed to effect me more. Hives, hands itching and feeling "tight", bleeding in mouth & nose, aching legs. I'm still lacking energy and breaking out with hives every few days, and get up looking like a really old person, but the bleeding has stopped.
My CA-125 has gone up to 26. Getting another test next week

Trying some new diets to boost energy. Staying away from red meat as much as possible, and trying to eat lots of veggies. (Veggie smoothies are not too bad.)
