This last chemo treatment (#6) was a little different. Well, #5 was the real difference. I don’t think I had one good day during #5. It showed in my blood work. Everything was low which goes hand-in-hand with my fatigue level. It was decided to reduce my chemo drugs’ dosage by 10%. Right now I’m feeling like that was a wash. We’re still feeling a cumulative effect so one more treatment at 10% less may feel just like treatment #5. Won’t be sure until it’s over.
Christina told me that she feels like she’s living with the grim reaper - that’s kind of how I look I guess. Not too good. My hands are blue and incredibly wrinkled. And all this napping. I am more dead than alive. At least we’re on the the better side of half-way. If my blood levels are good enough, the dose goes back to 100%. By the time this is done, I’m going to be a wreck and it may take weeks if not months to actually feel normal again. God I hope I don’t need another twelve sessions of this.
