IL_2.....5 doses down....
I am pretty anemic however, so I have to have a blood transfusion. The doctor said that's a leftover side effect from the sutent. Darn Sutent.
I'm drinking lots and lots of water, as Pheonix suggested, and I think that"s helping.
So that'd the latest Hope you're all doing well...

Keep up the good work
Keep up the good work! I also had a blood transfusion although I had never taken Sutent or any other chemo drug before IL-2. Don't forget to ask for something for those chills if you run into it again. The sooner, the better. Godspeed!0 -

So many of my favourite people have beaten me to the punch that they've left me nothing more to say. Maybe I can just add how much I hope you'll swell the number of complete responders. Stick with it Jennifer.0 -

Thanks all for your words of encouragement. And, no offense taken, Fox! It takes a lot more than that to offend this chick:)
Last night was rough, since my blood pressure dropped and it took them a while to get it back uo. But 2i.v.'s later, it's fine now. I hate needles so that was no fun:(
Now I just look like I'm euper sunburned....which for a redhead, isn't that uncommon. But when I do get sunburned, I'm usually doing something fun. Not this time. . My appetite had gone way down. Gonna be fruit and bagels from here on in.
Hope all of you are well. Honestly, so far it's not THAT bad. But I keep waiting for the unbearable stuff around the corner....
Take care, all.

Hey there Toolman,
Don't fear the worst! IL-2 is tiring and can be mind boggling. I didn't feel like looking at a computer screen after my 1st or 2nd round, and I was a little scrambled mentally. I only wanted to sleep, and did quite a bit of that! No news does not mean bad news-- it just means no new news.0
