Round 5 – running out of steam

It’s been a week since my last chemo and if it wasn’t so exhausting, I would want to quit.

Cumulative sucks.

Onset of fatigue on the evening of chemo. Flatigue set in good and hard on Wednesday. There was no effect of the corticosteroids (apart from night sweats). Heart palpitations en masse (pulse: 115-130) repeatedly throughout the day. Fungal infection but this time I was ready for it – after 6 days of Nystimex, the worst was over.

For some reason, very light neuropathy (just tingling in my finger tips) which is a relief. Or maybe I’m just so flatigued that I’m not registering any pain? I am certainly not complaining.

There are a couple of blogs in the pipeline – if I can just get enough strength to sit at the computer for more than ten minutes at a time.

But yes, still hanging in there, still enjoying the sun through the window.
