AC Chemo - Day 5 (or should we say 'my arse is on fire')
OK... Day 5 slightly more eventfull than desired.
Started off normal - like other days. Considering my day 4 fiasco with meds I took extra steps to ensure I took the correct meds in the correct ord...
Thank you for the tips :)
Inhave actually need lucky that Inam only making between 1 and 3 trips to the loo per day so not needing the gastrostop yet.
Visits are memorable, loud and still burning everything in sight but I am just relieved that is is not the trafitional 'runs' where it would mean sitting on the loo arround the clock.
I found that eating the mountain of steamed zucchini and yellow squash helped yesterday as my gut has also been burning the past few days and weirdly after eating it it has calmed down for several hours (did not help the backside getting scortched again though)
Current plan is lots of steamed veg and if that turns sour (or bites me on the proverbial) then will be hitting the boiled rice boiled or baked potatoes or just plain toast...
And still am counting down towards that (currently thought of as 'blessed') week 2 where the fires are expected to subside ??????
