Cycle two begining of week three 24 February 2011

I just finished with Cycle two medications and I'm headed into my off week. I'm tired, exhausted and cold all the time. Oh yeah I have notice that by the end of the 2nd week I do also tend to get cranky and more easily ticked off at others. Otherwise I'm hanging in there and surviving. Not much to report this week

10 February 2011 Cycle Two

I saw Dr R. today, he seemed pleased with my lack of side effects to the new drug. I told him that I was boring and he stated that that sounded Negative to him, but he liked that I was tolerating the treatment. So we have started on Cycle two now.

03 February 2011 Cycle ONE of Oral Chemo Medication

OK I have just finished the first course of the NEW Oral Chemo drug that I’m on. I didn’t want to jinx it so I haven’t said much about it. Well guess what folks---I’m still boring when it comes to Chemo side effects----nothing so far, which is the good news. Well I’ll take that back, someone has finally messed with my body’s thermostat----Now I get COLD and it takes a while for me to warm up again. I’m even wearing sweaters in the house, unheard of for me. I don’t own what most people would call a “winter” coat so I have to wear a couple of them at a time, when I go out, and gloves----you know like “everyone” else dresses in winter time.

Thanks for following along on my LONG drawn out course of treatments as the Doctors and I try and get this thing under control.
