Sitting here at 4:15am (CST) after trying since 2:30am to go back to sleep and finally giving up, yet again... Wondering who else is out there this morning, and most mornings at this time?
I’m crossing my fingers and toes for you that you’ll be able to go ahead. It’s funny what we wish for but I’m sure that you’d rather power on and get that magic 9 done and dusted rather than put if off for a week if possible. Still, if it will ease the neuropathy and make it less likely to cause permanent damage then it will definitely be a good thing to wait. Either way - this too will end! Let us know how you go. Xxxx
Yes - the magic number but I'm not sure if the onc will let me go ahead today. He did say that I may have to have a week's break if symptoms weren't looking good. I don't know how bad the neuropathy has to be before that happens. The funny thing is that the other side effects haven't been as bad this week.
@Sister - I’m still tucked under the doona and haven’t looked at the weather forecast but it’s been raining so I guessing it’s pretty chill out there. Is this number 9 for you? That’s a bit of a milestone!
I can see that I'm not the only one awake now - @AllyJay and @Eastmum. Is it freezing where you are? I'm sure that the cold is making my neuropathy worse even though it's only just started.
