Good Morning
Hi out htere, well on my 3rd lot of anbtibiotics and finally have some relief from this nasty staph infection.
Busy week saw medical oncolgist yesterday, I am going to be given the works, chemo, ra...
Hi Jenny, day 6 feeling more myself today but would you believe I must have put my back out and woke up with pain down the back of both leg muscles and calf muscles couldn't even sit down....panic! but apparently not chemo related but never had this kind of problem when I have had my back problems before!
Feeling more like eating but nothing tastes very good, had to resort to the maxalon the last 2 days but today ok, found some ginger and lemon tea which seems to help.
Definitely use the coloxyl and senna before chemo that is what they recommended to me but I stopped it when I finished the Zofron and should have continued for another day I think.
What type of work do you do? I am not thinking of going back until after the next chemo just to make sure as I don't want to muck them around.
How many children do you have and how old?
Did you get fluid retention?Up until last night I had but boy during the night it was like niagra falls,that might be why I feel a bit better today, feet not swollen, I was also getting the shakes of a morning, Helen thought it was either low blood pressure or low blood sugar it wasn't BP so made myself eat some sweet things as I had only been having savoury....loving chips...and found it was ok this morning. Appetite much improved today.
Hope you have a good Easter.
