Some good days some bad. Hang in there. If I remember your on AC right now. Sometimes it does effect our sleep and then you wake up feeling like crap,and then the whole day goes bad. Take it as easy as you can.0 -
Sorry to hear today was a
Sorry to hear today was a rough one for you. It probably doesn't help, but I had days like that too...still do. Days I just felt low...low energy, low mood, side effects seemed worse, etc. Never could pinpoint a reason, but the one that most frequently seemed like the culprit was hydration. And if you've put away that nasty habit you mentioned, that might be part of it too.
Get some rest and do something to pamper yourself. Hope you feel better tomorrow.
Hugs,

It took me longer to start
It took me longer to start feeling better. The first 2 weeks were bad and then I'd start feeling like I was back in the land of the living during the 3rd week just in time for another infusion. Hope you get a good nights sleep and feel better tomorrow.

Texas Girl
While going through chemo, during the second week after treatment I would crash and get very depressed. It turned out that my depression may have been because the steroids from the treatment had worn off. My sister noticed the pattern I was having and said her friend had the same kind of depression around 10 days to two weeks after chemo, then felt better a few days later. Xanax, prescribed anti-anxiety pill, helped on those days. Hope you feel better.0 -
I sure hope you are feeling
I sure hope you are feeling better today. Are you using the alcohol free mouth wash for the sores? It helped me allot. I used Act mouth wash. I also drank the protein drinks and it did help with fatigue ( Ensure ) Hope this helps. Feel better your in my prayers. Take care Kay0 -
The 5th day was my worst
I have my T-C treatments on Friday with a neulasta shot on Sunday and find that Tuesday is my worst day. I usually struggle to work on Monday and then have to stay home on Tuesday in bed.
I didn't start to feel better until day 8 to 10 which increased with each treatment.
I go in for my last chemo on Friday. Finally!

Ask Onc. of there is something to take for these mouth sores. The metal taste goes away. Helped when I used plastic utensils.0 -
hope you are feeling better
So sorry to hear you are not feeling well AND have to go to work! I usually started to feel bad the 5th or 6th day after infusion.....but again, we are all different. It all sucks...but it gets better...really it does! Hope you are now feeling a bit better....thoughts are with you. Hugs0 -
From one Texas girl to another
Dear Sweet Texas girl, I am so sorry that you are feeling so bad and unable to sleep,I went through that too, I just couldn't sleep and most nights I would be up all night and my legs would be aching. Vicki Sam had commented about Neulasta that was my worst, I would have my Chemo and 24 hours later I would go back for the Neulasta injection and that would knock me to my knees, I could barely walk across the room for about a week after receiving that injection. I would get sick immediately after taking my Chemo and stay sick for about week and a half to two weeks, then I would start feeling some better just in time for the next treatment. My heart just aches for you but after the Chemo things will get better. I always felt that I had a sharp mind but the Chemo Brain bothered me a lot and still does, in fact I got lost in my front yard one day (I laugh now when I think back on that incident)it's funny now but it wasn't then. This is not fun and the journey seems long but I'm here to tell you sweet girl you will come out with the Victory, and you will feel brand new again, maybe even bettter than before. I wish I could make it all go away for you but honey it's part of the journey.
Hugs and more hugs

Lidocaine swishJean T. Szabo said:Sores

He gave me some lidocaine swish and it works wonders for a little while. The last time I had chemo I got thrush so he put me on diflucan. So far I haven't had thrush this time, & I sure hope I don't.0 -

Hi Linda,
You just described how I feel to a T. I'm not sick, just feeling rundown and I don't know why. How are you doing? When is your surgery? I've been thinking about you and my prayers are constantly going up for you.
Hugs back to you,

Vicki Sam
Hi VickiSam,
No I'm not having any shots after chemo. My Onc hasn't metioned any shots either.. I don't want a shot. I have no problem giving shots all day long, but I don't want to be on the receiving end of a needle lol0 -

I'm using biotene toothpaste and mouthwash. My Onc also prescribed lidocaine swish and it does help for a little while. I'm feeling a little better today. I called in sick to work, but I think I'm going to go in for a little while. The Doctor that I work for is wonderful and really wants me to stay home, but said if I really wanted to come in that would be ok, but to leave if I start feeling weak again. Thank You for your prayers and you are in mine also.
Hugs to you,
