One being Schmaltz and the other graveness. In those times we used to live into our 40s or 50s then plots... Although my father lived until 88 and enjoyed both of these Jewish staples. Oy Vei... When I was a kid it was Schmaltz on fresh hot rye bread with Caraway seeds imbedded in it. My father was a baker for more then fifty years. Brings back those taste buds, doesn't it... Not to mention those crispy critters, graveness 18's, Marty On Wed, Dec 14, 2016 at 11:20 AM, bkbarney via CMLHope <cmlhope@googlegroups.com> wrote: Dear Greenie, Another thought...please make sure, this is the Jewish mom in me to be sure.....that your heart is working well...sometimes we blame everything on our chemo's...if it's a new symptom, and you have been on a med for a long time, it could be something else that is causing symptoms...are you short of breath when you walk up stairs, tire more easily when you take a long walk? Have you had a stress test anytime??? or recently??? Remember, the blow to you when you have the kind of loss you have sustained is felt not just emotionally, but in the body as well..it is not uncommon to have health issues post such a trauma.... I know you have an amazing spirit.... just worried about you.. Take good care!

I received my blood work back from 10-07-2016 and my BCR-ABL1 fusion transcripts are NOT detected. The bad news is that my creatinine level and gone up from 1.56 to 1.82. I have always been on the high side going back to 1998. It was 1.3 back then. It was 1.58 in 6/01/2016. The other item is I'm retaining water in my feet and lower legs. Had some Polish sausage on Friday night and within 2 to 3 hours my feet, ankles and calves blew up like the Pillsbury Doughboy so no salt for me. Grace dose not use saw and when we go out for dinner I tell them NO SALT on anything but the sausage caught me by surprise. So Marty if you read this email me back or anyone and tell me what my options are because I am lost on what to do.. Have not heard from Doctor yet because she probably hasn't received a fax yet from Quest. Otherwise I doing find. Always get cramps that's been from day one when I started Gleevec the first week in Jan 2000. WBC is 4.7 and platelet court is 202 and RBC is 3.61 and it's been low ever since i started Gleevec. So other then that I want everyone to drive safe and have a Happy Holiday and a Happy New Year.
