How a week makes a difference!
The itchy rash resolved - so it was likely from Septra. I did follow through with an appointment with Dr. Hanson, an epileptologist (is that a word?). While the rash was unlikely due to Keppra I can likely get by with a lower dose. I have had some diarrhea and my mood has been a bit more depressed - both of these could be contributed to by the Keppra. So I am weaning that dose.
The kids were home for the Family Day Weekend, and the Edmonton kids brought Dezi home - they were looking after her while we were in Calgary for radiation therapy. I thought she would need some time to get familiar with Sundre but she has settled in to home like she never left. It is great to have her around, and she is a perfect nap companion.
I have more energy as the effects of the radiation resolve, but I still run out of steam pretty quickly. Also as physical energy improves I am aware of some more depressed mood at times. So this journey continues up and down from day to day.
Love helps with the ups and downs, I think. It lasts even longer than life.
