Sorry I've been out for a week or so...what can I say? Chemo!
I had a treatment on Tuesday. It wasn't my usual Maria and the "replacement" put in the wrong IV. It all worked itself out but I could use as little excitement as possible. My platelets are low so my blood clotting factor isn't where it should be. My blood tests on Monday and IV placement on Tuesday was full of blood....I will leave it at that!
So! Treatment went okay on Tuesday. I got sick on the way home and went to bed when I got home. Wednesday I was just tired. It feels very much like you are getting over having the flu. You aren't 100% but you feel better. Do you know what I mean?? Fatigue and little energy but I was not in bed wishing I was no longer here :-)
I woke up Thursday early morning (2 am 'ish) and was completely freaked out by the overwhelming nausea. That lasted until Saturday morning. I'm not sure what happened. My hair has started falling out rapidly again. I am beginning to wonder if the "replacement" nurse gave me the full strength Methotrexate instead of the reduced dose. My blood work should be interesting....telling....
I did my blood work for the week yesterday because I have chemo tomorrow. My taxi (AKA my hubby) has work in court on Tuesday. So I get to start my week off in style! Yea me! On the up side, my liver counts did return to normal in 2 out of 3 categories from the 2 week break. That is a good sign that the elavated counts are a direct result of the chemo and not anything else. I fully expected this anyway but it's nice to see something actually play out the way I hope and expect :-)
The tumor pain is increasing and that is NOT good. I believe it is an indication that the change in meds is not good for the tumor problem. It doesn't seem to have been great for the liver problems either... I see my oncologist next week and he said we would discuss changing back to Vinblastine at that time.
We have received so many great meals and I've tried to mention them all so that you all know how much we appreciate you but I know I have fallen short. I've forgotten some and I apologize. I will stop trying :-) because I don't want to offend anyone by an inadvertant ommission. Know that we love your meals and we love you! Thank you all so very, very much!
Happy Easter!
Enjoy your families, love one another and appreciate what you have in life!
