Pretty much everything happened to me after my chemo that you all said would except I didn't have any constipation, just diarhea.  I am in my third week and I feel great except most of my hair is gone.  Last Monday I had it all cut short but they saved my braids.  It was coming out in gobs!!

I have round 2 of my chemo next Tuesday so I'm planning on laying low next week and licking my wounds.  I'll be able to get the Neulasta shot too which hopefully will raise my WBC so I can go out into public again.  

I'm worked this afternoon to do payroll, pay bills, send out bills and generally do my regular bookwork.  I took a road trip with some friends yesterday and we had a wonderful time!!  I'm not looking forward to next week BUT the faster I get this over with, the faster I can, hopefully, put this cancer behind me.

Take care,

Eldri

    I plan to start the Claritin

    I plan to start the Claritin today since my nose keeps dripping.  I think most of the hair in my nose is gone.  I usually take Zyrtec but will switch to Claritin and kill two birds with one stone.

    We're heading up to the lake this weekend.  We only have a couple of weekends before we close up the place for winter and I was thinking that when we open it up again next spring I should be DONE with this treatment.  

    Take care,

    Glad you're getting away

    Nice that you have a place to escape to.  Getaways are the best!  Enjoy.
