Day 23: Post Chemo 2

Today I went in for more meds. They are giving me some extra stuff for my nausea as well as my booster shot. The booster shot is synonymous with nap time for Andrea. I sleep a great deal after getting it.

My stomach is doing better than the last round of chemo largely in part to a new drug they gave me. They referred to it as a "Cadillac drug". I thought my self esteem would improve more with being administered such a fancy drug but so far that hasn't happened. Although my stomach is better it is still giving me some fits. I know that it is going to be over soon and so I hang onto that.

My taste buds were absolutely fried yesterday and I had the awful metallic taste in my mouth that the chemo meds cause, which there are no words to describe but that is slowly getting better now. This is where the pudding comes in.

I do get feverish and then cold quite a bit. Jason has a heck of a time trying to keep up with me. But that isn't anything new. :-)

I will keep you posted on how things are going tomorrow. Thanks so much for your prayers. They are so appreciated. Love you all!
