Yesterday was quite a long day. I was able to have my 8th treatment minus the bleomycin. Thursday and Friday I had a few coughing fits and was short of breath. After treatment, they sent me to have a CT scan of my lungs. My lungs showed some inflammation which may be lung toxicity. I am taking a steroid to help with the breathing. They will probably permanently take me off of the the bleomycin. 

The good news is that I am already breathing better and I only have 4 more treatments to go!
