Today I get a room with a bed. Last time it was a cubicle with a chair. I actually liked the chair better. I don't want to sleep so I'm just sitting in a regular chair for infusion. I like being able to look outside. In here it's like I'm in a hospital room.
I was feeing sick last night and this morning, but they think it's anticipatory nausea. Next time I'll take meds for it. All of my labs looked perfect. They adjusted my meds a bit, adding one that's supposed to be a miracle worker for nausea. Oh I hope Zyprexa works!!

I'm in the middle of the infusion right now. Still not feeling good so they are getting me even more anti-nausea meds. Let's all cross our fingers that this round goes better than the first!
praying that the meds work and you can be nausea free..how miserable for you..We are praying for good results for you
ReplyDeleteI bought a wig and wore it if I had to go somewhere but not around the house. The funny thing, I would drive bald and it's interesting the looks I got from other drivers. Hang in there. I wish I could say it gets better, but it doesn't. Soon you won't give a damn about the hair. You will also lose eyebrows and eyelashes but hair in other places is ok
ReplyDeleteNo shaving! I still don't have under arm hair. I can count that as a blessing. You will get through this and be better than ever. I am sincerely praying for you and your family. Make yourself a priority right now. Love you and thinking about your trial daily. Janice
Your under arm hair stayed away permanently! I hope mine does!!
DeleteNo leg hair either. I have not shaved my under arms or legs since chemo. Big blessing. I guess you deserve some blessings after being so sick. Good luck and prayers going your way.
ReplyDeleteJen I wanted to ask you a question.A group of friends and I wore a special shirt every Thursday for a friend going through chemo and radiation. I was wondering if I could wear a pink shirt on Tuesdays in support of you and encourage all our friends to do the same. I want you to see and know how much we love and support you.
