Yesterday was my third and final (for now) chemo session. Had the usual "chemo headache" after I got home, but nothing unusual. Tim and I went to eat Mexican food for lunch; and I took to the "light side" of the menu w/ my usual order of rice, corn tortillas and guacamole. Since I am allergic to that wonderful herb cilantro; which is used in just about every Mexican dish, I had to take my Benadryl afterwards. Between by anti-nausea med, Bendaryl, and some Advil PM for my headache, it was time to put on the pj's and crawl into bed. Slept well, and woke up somewhat refreshed this morning.Today, was spend mostly in bed; after breakfast, it was back in bed to read and watch television. At some point, I fell asleep, and didn't wake up until 6:00; didn't even know Liz had come home from school; or if she did wake me, I don't remember. Good 'ole chemo brain!
Managed to fix some mashed potatoes and tomatoes and okra for dinner, but after that was ready to crawl into bed......AGAIN!
Oh well! Tomorrow is a brand new day, and I know that by the end of the week, most of my side effects will have diminished. Here's to a new day!
Love to all ~ K~
