Treatment 13 a done! My updates this week are a little later because treatment is across two days. Yesterday I started two new chemo drugs and unfortunately they have me down. I went to sleep Thursday at 6:30pm and woke up at 4am. I have steroids I have to take on day 2 and 3 of treatments and this will be helpful with steroids. the drug pictured below is nicknamed “the red devil” and fun fact it changes my tears to pink. I have the most trouble getting this it’s not a drip medication it’s one they have to sit by you and inject slowly.
On Friday after treatments I get a shot in either my stomach or my arm to help boost my white blood count. I don’t enjoy shots so I opted for a shot in my stomach because I didn’t think it would be as painful. Overall I feel fine but I’m tired and I am having some bone aches. Now the next time I will have treatment will be April 3rd so I will be able to get some rest and recover!
I still don’t have a sense of taste, everything has to be an intense flavor before I can taste it. I can really taste pineapple, kiwi and blackberries. Otherwise I don’t have any serious side effects and I’m praying it stays that way. Tuesday we have rescans and my doctor told me she would call me after she reads my results because she knows I can’t be trusted to not read the app and see what the results are.
