I had another chemo treatment last Thursday, went fine.\u00a0 I ended up in the big room with like 8 stations with a maze of curtains to partition them off (it was kinda cool following the tracks on the ceiling with your eye to see seeing how they designed the curtains so it seals off each area).\u00a0 Wasn’t too bad, their wasn’t a TV in that room, which I kinda like, would rather just sit there and think than have a TV be on.\u00a0 There was an old guy that came in and was talking and it somehow came out that he was 100 years old!\u00a0 And it wasn’t like he was rounding up or anything, they ask you all the time what your name is and your birthday (and then look at the medication they’re giving you which has labels saying that on it) and he was born in 1908!\u00a0 Total madness.\u00a0 As a buddy of mine said, “He was old in the 70’s and is still here.”\u00a0 Anyway, it went fine.\u00a0 The nurse has been different each time and it’s kinda interesting, each nurse does things a little different, like which drugs they manually inject and which ones they let the pump inject.\u00a0 Another is how they tape down the needle into my port is totally different each time.<\/p>\n
Nausea hasn’t been as bad this time, I decided to try taking more heartburn medicine (over the counter xantac I think is what I’ve got), just take two instead of one and I think that was the differance.\u00a0 So far it hasn’t gotten worse with each treatment, which I’m grateful for.\u00a0 It’s a few days out so the nausea is on the down hill side of the curve and almost gone for the most part.\u00a0 I seem to be feeling better than I have the last couple weeks, after the chemo before last after I started feeling alright when it came to nausea I started to feel a little run down and like I was going to get a cold so I layed low and didn’t go back to work for the remainder of the time before this chemo treatment.\u00a0 My immune system is down from the chemo I didn’t want to get a cold I’d have trouble shaking and feel shittier during a chemo treatment to boot.\u00a0 It seems to have worked since I didn’t really get sick, just felt kinda run down and slightly shitty one or two days but didn’t really get sick.<\/p>\n
I guess that’s it… don’t really have anything else or more interesting to report, just mainly been sitting around, watching TV, watching movies, hanging around listening to muisc and dicking around on the internet, nothing too exciting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
