This is the start of week two – One week of CHEMO and 5 nuking sessions, done, in the bag, el completeto. Looks like 5 weeks to go but is finally based on the radiation oncologist and her treatment.
Down side – felt a little queasy Wednesday and Saturday, but if I stayed busy not too noticeable. Slept 12 hours on Saturday.
Up side – blood lab today showed an improvement over the starting labs. Maybe being on the wagon has had a good effect?
Oncologist was surprised I had no significant reaction to the chemo, he expected colorful toilet talking and lying in bed nauseated to the point of not being able to function.
HA! This is no girly boy you talking about.
Also tumor/mass in neck has reduced from 3.8CM to 1.3CM which he found very interesting.
charley is dying and we are doing the killing, Minimal collateral damage has surfaced, some nausea(transient), dry mouth(transient), slightly fatigued, may need to take it easy at work(you listening Russ?)
Laissez les bons temps rouler
Shrinking in fear of the shirts!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome news! I'm not the least bit surprised though, my wife does like to point out the fact, regularly, that you and I are both a bit stubborn, so I'm sure you can command Charley to grow or shrink at will...
ReplyDeleteHIP HIP HOORAY!!! The strippers, no doubt, had something to do with its' shrinking self.
ReplyDeleteBeing on a small wagon (Pete style) helps I'm sure. It may have helped the blood lab too! ;) You've still got a toe or two on the ground... I know you too well.
