I had a meeting with my oncologist this morning - everything is OK so far. I have one more infusion after this before I get another PET scan. After that, I start chemo+radiation.

There was some difficulty in my port again (like last time) - it seems like the catheter inside of me is kinked somehow and is preventing any fluids from coming in or out. The only way to unkink it, so far, is for me to turn my head a certain way and move my right arm in a certain direction. They might have to do a dye study on my port to find out exactly why its doing this.
