Hello Team Georgia - wow, great to catch up- what a day!
So, I have been working this week as per normal and had a hypo kind of do everything, run around a lot few days- did not get puffed out once - how about that! Only thing is, my abdomen did protest a little on Wednesday, so I sat from time to time!
Anyway, long story short, I forgot to take pre-chemo meds for Thursday's Chemo, and when I got home , I tried to make up for it and took too many.So I turn up for GEMTAX today and they gave me more with my chemo so I am still on double-time right now with no-one to talk to, all by myself, I'm home about 8 just me and my FOXTEL, ain't misbehaving etc..........
So, Chemo did go well today, beloved sister 2 came with and special cousin S popped in for a treat and I chatted all through my day!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had bloods done at 9am- only 2 attempts - pretty good compared to last week.
I saw a psych - yes me- I know first time ever even though I am Psych trained myself- pretty awesome step in life - so why not take a risk now? - it won't kill me - (too much? .... OK....try to calm down.......)
I don't think the psychologist got a chance to speak - no surprises there!
Then I had two lots of chemo: Gemcitabine 1520mg and then Docetaxel 170mg
Sent home with strict instructions on :
1. How to give myself and Injection of Pegfilgrastim (Neulasta Ang) and
2. To not touch DEXAMETHASONE TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!
Taking day off tomorrow again, this time to see the cardiologist and rest due the chemo today,
Love your life, but don't take too many drugs,
Georgia
