Okay, according to doctor's orders, the First Round of my First Cycle was unusual and that it went accordingly:
Day 1-3 went to spend a few days with Luanne and Janice in San Jose, came home Day 3 (Wednesday night), feeling just a bit tired, from long trip.
Day 4 starting to feel lethargic and not too well (Thursday).
Day 5 started to feel run down and stayed in bed most of day, then nausea and vomiting started in evening and spent the entire evening sick (Friday).
Day 6 spent entire day vomiting (Saturday - Christmas Eve).
Day 7 finally came out of the bedroom and spent time with family, still didn't eat for fear of bringing it back up (Sunday). Family came from San Jose to exchange gifts and thank goodness things were a bit better.
Day 8 back to semi-normal (Monday).
Fast Forward to this 2nd Round of my First Cycle:
Day 1 went fine (Monday).
Day 2 went back in for Blood Transfusion (Tuesday) and proceeded to feel nauseated. Half way through Blood Transfusion I started vomiting and did so throughout my entire treatment and on to home. It wasn't until about midnight did I wake up feeling great!
Day 3 was going to cancel my appointment with my arm surgeon post-op, but felt great this morning and didn't need to (Wednesday).
Now, come day 5 and 6, I'd BETTER not be back in bed with vomiting, I'll scream!! Let's hope this is how my new cycle is going to go, that would be great!
By the way, the arm surgeon loved the progress that arm had taken and that he said it was healing properly! He said that it was starting to show white on my x-ray (which is new bone growth) and that he can't wait to see the progress in another 6 weeks). He says that it looks like the chemo is starting to work with it :) YEAY!!!
Peace to you all ~ Love, Genie
