So far, the after-effects from this Monday's chemo have been much, much better than the first time around. What a relief! I guess the anti-nausea pills they forgot to prescribe during round one really do the trick. While I occasionally feel a bit of nausea coming on, it's usually very brief. My puke pail has remained unused, although I keep it nearby just in case. No migraines, either. I'm still tired but not nearly as much as I was after the first round. I've actually been able to do some things around the house instead of curling up on the couch in a fetal position. I even took Lucy for her morning walk, enjoying the fresh air! Here's hoping the rest of my treatments go as well as this one has.
By the way, thank you for all your wonderful cards I've received since my journey has begun! I truly appreciate all the prayers and good wishes being sent my way. To my friend Deb - I love my strength rock. I keep it close to me.
Polly,
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear this last round of chemo has been a little bit kinder to you. Thank goodness they remembered the anti-nausea pills.
I wish the circumstances were different for you but I enjoy reading your blog. You definitely are a talented writer.
Looking forward to viewing more of your art work.
Thank you for sharing your journey.
