Round 2 done.
Jan. 12th, 2013 12:07 amChemo is done for round 2 and only 8 more days of radiation.
I am so looking forward to the end of radiation. This driving hours every day for a 15 minute appointment is getting really, really tiring. Like not just "I'm kind of tired" it is like a bone deep exhausted. I feel really bad for mom since it can't be any better for her and she is the one doing the driving.
Course, at least part of my tired could be the chemo. This round is shaping up to be worse than the first. Not surprising, cumulative effect and all. I did have to have an extra injection to settle my stomach today in addition to the small barrage of pills. That was not fun. The small barrage has been up to a medium size barrage for the next few days as well.
Sleeping for longer than 2 hours at a time would also be ridiculously awesome.
This next part is a little ... TMI? Maybe? Probably. It is also mildly amusing in the sense that you are all totally allowed to point and laugh and go "Not me!"
( Most likely TMI )
Anyway, most irrelevant side trip done now.
I am still mostly good, if not completely comfortable and am now going back to napping.
