Had my spring blood draw, and all seems good as far as that goes, I don’t have my full report in front of me I do remember my bilirubin was 0.02 and my ca19-9 was 5 which is the lowest I have ever seen either. I am not sure if it can be too low , I see my Gastrointerologist in a month to verify but I think low is good on both these numbers. He didn’t want to do a scan as he felt there wasn’t a need to although I have had some pain in the liver / lower right side as I have been pushing my limits on lifting things ( I’ve been splitting wood and building a 455 buick motor for my car for which all the pieces seem to be gravity loving objects ) so much for don’t lift anything heavy. So I can’t whine about every ache and pain, unfortunately at twelve years out the world doesn’t come running every time I have something heavy to move or lift. Therefore I find myself doing more than I should when duty calls. I will do what I can and pursue a happy life and enjoy quiet moments in front of the fire yet this requires preparation and hard work, which is good exercise and keeps us balanced. For now I am doing well and hoping for another fun summer.   Be well,  Pat
