I have opted for a different regime, a weekly dose, rather than one every three weeks. My reasoning is that, if I am allergic to this lot too, the lower dose is less likely to kill me instantly.
So 9 long weeks of chemo, a week off and then a CT scan to see how we are doing. Followed by another 9 weeks of the same. Not sure I am entirely looking forward to it.This means that my chemo actually starts on Tuesday 26th March, rather than the day after tomorrow.
In the meantime, the steroids are making all the difference and I have begun to emerge from a pain filled hole and start to do some exercise (walking the dogs) and even managed to clear up the teenagers' rooms today. ( I am normally a "Tip 8" person!). Onwards and upwards.
Onwards and upwards....you are in my thoughts all the time.

ReplyDeleteThinking of you. Don't take any nonsense from those cancer cells - give 'em heaps and send them packing! Best wishes.
