I have good-ish news regarding my coworker, J. Her doc's aren't ready to diagnose her with leukemia. They want to monitor her levels monthly but that is it for now.
Is there no difinitive test for leukemia? I don't know enough about it and I'm afraid to Google.
She says she feels ok, other than being overworked, stressed out, and barely sleeping (gosh, those sound familiar).

I'm glad the news is at least somewhat good for J., SuziQ. Although the waiting and monitoring are not gonna help her stress levels, I'm sure. I hope the monitoring doesn't turn up anything bad over the next several months.
In far less dire medical news, I have a sore arm from my polio and tetanus shots (probably mostly the latter). And I just got an email from the travel medicine company nurse who will be administering the rest. I can expect jabs for: hepatitis A, hepatitis B, typhoid, yellow fever, and meningitis. Also pills to ward off malaria and travelers lower-GI issues. All of which are better than actually getting typhoid and whatnot. But ow. The last time I dealt with this many needles I ended up with a tattoo.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I can't decide whether to go to an LGBT meeting tonight (one that I've never been to before) or do laundry. I sepcifically stopped off at the dry cleaners so I could get a recipt to turn in for a little cash for a coffee at the coffee shop where they're meeting but my self confidence is in the gutter right now.

Calli, a friend of mine who has spent time in Africa and had to take the malaria pills said they gave her weird dreams. She found it very disturbing, but better than having malaria. (Don't know if the doctor/nurse mentioned side effects, but just in case ....)

I had trippy dreams on Malaria medicine! I only had to take it once a week for three weeks and all the dreams were pleasant enough but very halucinatory. Bad ones would be AWFUL.

re: Malaria dreams. Thank you--that's good to know. I'll bring it up with the nurse when I see her.
I had trippy dreams last night on nothing but Xanax. My hair had turned white and curly (it's currently light brown and straight as a ruler). As I was sitting on a park bench all these people in red clothes came by and started singing. It was a lovely sort of choir effect, but I didn't know the words, so I couldn't join in.
