Chemo - Round 3
Round 3 - Round 3 was hard. It's amazing how quickly the drugs work to affect your system. There are so many side-effects and I didn't realize I would get so many of them. I'm on 3 different drugs and they all 3 have different side-effects. I was down for about 5 hours Thursday night (last Thursday, 2/26 ). I felt better on Friday, went for my white blood cell count booster shot. I got the shot in the belly again this week. It doesn't seem to hurt as much there. But, then I think I over did it that day. By early evening I was in bed for the rest of the night and in bed most of the day on Saturday. Sunday was church and then on the couch for the day. I stayed home from work on Monday. Really it was one of the first un-scheduled days off of work from not feeling well. I was back to work on Tuesday, but had a busy week with the girls. I felt much better by Wednesday. I have one more round of these 3 drugs. My next treatment is next week, 3/12. Then I have two weeks off and then I start my once a week treatment.
