Half way through chemo!
Well I havent posted for a while here as I just hate typing out longish things on my phone and I havent even turned on my laptop in weeks and weeks........Anyway.
I had only mild (meaning managable) side effects with my first and second round of TC.
A disgusting tongue for the first week and a bit after each dose.
Bone ache in my ankles, knees and shins.
A blood in my nose each morning.
Speradic dodgy gut.
A rash under my arm and..... my belly button got infected! Where my stitches were removed from the fertility part of all this got so gross so quick! Needed antibiotics but it seems to be doing ok now.
I dont have much energy but I am making it through work each day though I have taken a couple of days off work when I need them! There is a lady that gets the same chemo as me but one round ahead each time I go in and she ended up in hospital for a week which scared me a bit. I am making an effort to still do things BUT health comes first and not letting myself over do it. The only other two people I know who have been through this both also ended up in hospital while on chemo so it reminds me to be good and rest.
My boob is still trying to heal at one end where it was a bit puckered but otherwise all those bits seem to be going really good. I still have blue skin from the dye which I am shocked about as it has been 2 months now!
I am SO sick of people asking how I am FEELING that I posted on facebook for people to be more creative and got a good response from that :)
Oh. I have counted forward to see when my last dose will be and....... My last chemo dose will be ON MY 35TH BIRTHDAY! Not exactly a fun way to spend it but at least its the last right?
