Still Going

I was reminded yesterday that I hadn't posted in a while. I wasn't sure anyone was still reading :-)

Treatments have continued as planned and they were much of the same. Treatment on the 20th was slightly more eventful because I had a lot of bone pain following that dose. I am not sure if it was the increase or the Neupogen shots or just an oddity of chemo. I've had this pain before but not to this degree. I found myself reaching for pain meds because I just couldn't stand the pain. This is unsual for me so I suffered for a few days and broke down and took some tylenol. I'm not supposed to do that but I wasn't sleeping.

Treatment on the 27th was better. No bone pain and nausea subsided quicker than in previous weeks. Who knows what the differences can be attributed to...I have different experiences each week. It's frustrating! I want to be able to figure out what works and stick with it but like I said, each week is different.

Sunday night my legs started up again with the restlessness part. I get this often and it is worse at night. And then the falling started again...ugh! I fell yesterday. So I enjoyed a couple of weeks for that to go away and it looks as if it's coming back. I never went to the neurologist because the symptoms went away when I was on a break from chemo...imagine that! I know it it neuorlogically related so we will have to keep an eye on it. Which won't be difficult to do if I keep falling like I do!

Last treatment is today before jetting off to Maui!! Can't wait to leave it all behind and go on vacation with my family. It feels so good to be doing normal things....living a normal life and feeling good. It's only 8 days but I plan to live it up!
