WOW! This fifth treatment has really got me down! Well first, they changed my treatment day (not happy about that) so I was in on Monday, but I started getting sick on Sunday. My doctor and nurses said I am having anticipatory nausea. Whatever it is it sucks. It also get a little sick when I see, hear, or think of things that remind me of chemo. So I'm getting a little nauseous just writing this entry!
Well, the tumor is pretty much undetectable without an unltrasound or something! Yippee!!! That's the good news, but my doctor told me that my platelets were low so I am a little anemic. I assume that may be why I haven 't been able to bounce back as fast as I usually do. My aunt brought me some greens today but I need to eat more spinach (raw) red meat, and beets (not happening!!!!) So I will be trying to eat some steak & spinach tomorrow I guess.
I have really been down this time, I've been in bed since Tuesday most of the time. I have been kidnapped a few days by the James' but mostly in bed. Another factor may be the boxes stacked all around, I want to unpack but I really don't have the strength. Today I actually felt like pulling a few things out of boxes but it would last about 20 mins and I would have to hit the couch for about an hour! I also need to hit the grocery store but I have enough to last a few more days (Mama don't worry) but it is getting low!!! I barely have the energy to walk around my kitchen, I know I can't go shopping yet. But it will get done. I hope to go to church tomorrow and I'm sure I will feel better by next week.
This is the final countdown........ONE MORE TO GO!!!!!!!
Doctor's appointments starting next week, I'll keep you informed.
Smooches!
