Yep!! It's true!! I did my blood work today and got the green light for chemo tomorrow!! Yippee!! I'm back on track!! And a little more good news...the tumour has shrunk a little more!! It's a good news kind of day today!!
I am feeling pretty good too. I still have a little cold, but mostly I feel good. I returned to fitness yesterday (after being off all last week) and maybe over did it a little bit...I had a little bit of a rough day yesterday. Of course, it could have been the pounding and hammering as the roofers worked away. Man were they loud. Don't they know I was trying to rest??
My friend Mindy came to see me and brought me a lovely care package - complete with some new teas and homemade potato leek soup. I had no idea if I'd like the soup or not and am very happy to report it is very yummy!! Thank you so much, Mindy!! And you know I love that new tea egg!!
I am a little anxious (not hugely...just a little) for my chemo tomorrow. New drug, which means new side effects. The good news is the nausea should be less...I'll keep you posted on what side effects I do experience. I'm also a little nervous about finding a good vein to administer the drugs (keep your fingers crossed for me that this is not a problem!!) and then of course, there is the fact that my treatment is scheduled to take place over five hours - FIVE HOURS!!! That's over twice as long as my previous treatments. I am definitely taking snacks with me!!
Well my friends...wish me luck tomorrow!! As Arnold would say "I'll be back"!!
