Hmm, four days after infusion? That was when the side effects peaked for me. I had lots of pain during chemo, in the first and third week after each infusion. My blood test numbers kept getting better and better through it all, so let's just imagine the pain being the last scream of dying cancer cells. Hope you feel better soon!

Hang on my friend ...

Myself .. I might have a couple of my break thru pain meds, probably a bit of the Xanax to lighten things up and take the anx edge off ... dunk a couple “ couch lock “ indica cookies in a warm cup of hot chocolate .. settle on a comfy couch , lower the lights and listen to some Pink Floyd and chill lax. In a while things would probably start to ease up and allow you to relax a little. Most likely a peaceful sleep would ensue along the way.... that’s what I’d probably do .. just say’in.

We feel for you brother... pain sucks.

I went to my highly acclaimed oncologist and he examined me ....

I said “ what’s wrong with me doc ? “ ...

He said ... “ Boy ... you sick, you got bugs in your belly “ ...

Startled I thought WTF and said , “ I want a second opinion !!!

He said “ ok ... fine ... you smell funny too “ ( I know ... lame !!! Yayahahaha)

Best wishes ...

Geanton,

Hang in there it will get better. Side effects can be tough when your cancer is being attacked. If you have some pain meds use them and know it’s ok to spend the day in bed.

Take care!

One of my cats got Steamboat Willie last night. The cats are serial killers. Now my son must come over for burial detail. Alvin the chipmunk, moles, gophers, grasshoppers and birds by the dozen. All consigned to the dustbin of history. And as I lie on my couch in the evening, binge watching t.v., I see their green eyes, watching, watching, waiting.

Lol I remember that too .. both memories now.

You will do fine. In 2004, I just smiled knowing that the little bastards were dying.

Hang in there my friend. I find moving from one t.v. to another t.v. helps a lot. A little exercise always helps. Good luck.
