Third Round of Chemo – Half way done

Published by at 11:23 am under Cancer Details

Wednesday was my third round of chemo, my hubby went with me. Dr. Ellis, thinks that I am tolerating the chemo pretty well and said definitely 6 rounds instead of 4. I do have a lot of fatigue and side effects 5-8 days or so after. He gave me additional nausea medicine called emend. He seems to be helping a lot.

Did not speak to anyone this time around while getting chemo. I was able to get some work done and then fell asleep for a bit. My mother-in-law drove me down to the office yesterday for my neulasta shot (which boosts blood cell production). All is ok so far. I am just going to be sleeping a lot. I have a great job situation that lets me work around my chemo and my office is helping me out.

Thank you so much everyone for your prayers and kinds notes. I really appreciate them. 🙂
