Breast Cancer 3 Comments »Well chemo isn’t exactly like I thought it would be. I seem to have nausea every day and realize that anti-nausea medicines are my friend. I had been having trouble sleeping (steroid related??) and on Saturday night I slept for 2 solid hours and then was up. On Sunday, I felt pretty good but was tired. On Sunday night, I slept for 5 hours straight..yeah…on Monday I actually felt pretty good but by 3:00 p.m. sleep overcame me. I spent the rest of the afternoon dozing. We went to Cissna Park for volleyball and I dozed going and coming. Last night I slept all night except when the storm woke me. Already today I have dozed off twice. I’m thinking I just need to get caught back up on my sleep and will be good by afternoon. Tonight is the BIG volleyball game with our rival and I won’t be missing that.
Tomorrow I have an appointment with my doctor to see how the first week has been. I have mixed reactions on the first week so I’ll be anxious to see what the doctor thinks. It hasn’t been horrible, but different than I thought it would be and I certainly haven’t been very perky.
My birthday was very, very nice and I enjoyed Elmo a lot. It was pretty funny to watch. Riley, Lauren’s dog, wasn’t sure what to think and of course, we liked to add to his torment. I appreciate all Jeremy and Sarah’s efforts to find me a “Cheer Me Up” gift. It worked!
I’ll write after my doctor’s appointment.
Love, Lori
