Héloïse had a bit of temperature yesterday and her foot was swollen, so we went back to hospital. This is going to delay the treatment a little as the chemotherapy would help the infection develop. We first need to reduce the infection before things can resume.
The good point is that she is not too low on natural defenses so we don’t need to wear protective gear to approach her.
That’s it, we officially entered the consolidation phase 🙂 Apparently she is at level 2 ‘Average Risk 1’.
That was easy: I kept an older kernel around just in case, then:
$ sudo dpkg --add-architecture amd64 $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic:amd64
Reboot. And voilà:
$ uname --processor x86_64
The first 35 days of treatment ended today. She had a puncture done so we expect the myelogram hopefully tomorrow, then we’ll know at which level we are. It could be one of:
The analysis will tell how much residual disease is present and will determine the chemotherapy mix she’ll get and for how long.
This trial description may help understand a bit better how the groups are defined… Could not find anything better yet 🙁
Fingers crossed!
So.
But the best news in a while: HÉLOÏSE IS BACK HOME!!!
