Aaaargh

So it's day no. 2 after my 1st chemo, & all l seem to be doing is sleeping even though l'm not tired, drinking water & peeing non-stop, and getting headaches and eating drugs. Ugh. And this is meant to be my good week! (Next wek apparently all my intravenous anti-nausea drugs wear off & the fun begins...) Weather in melbourne is terrible today, hopefully l can get out of the house tomorrow for a walk or a poke around the shops or something. I suppose, if this is as bad as it gets, l really cant complain! I AM getting excited about booking in at the hairderssers over the weekend to get my head shaved, we're going to drink wine & have a laugh & take some funny photos...& l know someone who does the "Santa Claus" gig here at Myer, l'm going to have a bald photo with Santa & make a wish for everyone going through all this. Hey, it can't hurt! (I'm also wishing that my landlord will let me get a kitten!!) Anyways, hoping everyone is having a good day, l'm off to pee again! :-p From Bobbie

    Hi Bobbie,I just had my 3rd cycle.For me the first 4 days are fine,then for 3 or 4 days I get really tired,off and on.I stay away from people from day 9 to 15,then after that I am pretty much back to normal!I hope,you continue to do well.Remember to walk if you can,and eat well,as constipation can be a problem!! Cheers xoxoxo. Robyn.
