So today I am suddenly back to happy cheery me.  The chemo has left my system.  Does anyone else have that drastic a mood response?  I wish I could find something to help me while the chemo is still in my body.  But today I am full of joy and sunshine.  The world looks wonderful again and I can fight this off and win it whatever the cost.  However, when I am in the fog of 5 days with the chemo in me I am down in the dumps. 

Does anyone else deal with that? 

You all rock!  Thanks for all the help and support!

    Yes, I remember feeling so

    Yes, I remember feeling so much better after the effects of the chemo went away.  Not sure if there is a medical explanatin for it, but it is amazing how that happens.

    Enjoy the good days!

    It is like a switch turns on

    It is like a switch turns on and I do a 180.  When I am going through the 5 days of roughness it is hard to remember how drastic the switch is, but when it happens...... I am like a happy bouncing kid.  I am loving it.  Plus I get to try acupuncture tomorrow for my chemo fatigue!  Very excited about that! 

    I am glad to know I am not the only one!
