Greetings,
I got my mylotarg, and went 2 hours before any reactions. I had chills for about 10 minutes, followed by fever at 101.5 That's not as high or bad as the first time I got mylotarg, I had chills for about 30 minutes, then fever of 105.something. I'm tolerating the drug more, and have an appointment in 2 weeks for another dose. The first effect is a drop in white blood cells, followed by a drop in the other blood components.
We're having another thunderstorm day here, winds expected at 60 mph, and flooding expected with possibly another 4-6 inches during the storm period. These poor people have had their time with storms, just heard that IAH airport just evacuated the tower because of winds. Towers are the last to evacuate, and really screws up traffic for hundreds of miles as planes must now divert and find their own way.
I should be going home tomorrow morning, we're moving into the free apartments. When I have the phone number there, I'll be sure to post it.

I'll post more as I find out, please keep the people here in your thoughts; they need it.

Chris and Terri
