The second round of chemo was interesting. After I got past the allergic reaction to one of my chemo drugs, Taxatere. Benedryl and something else took away the symptoms -- chest and back pain with flushing around the neck, front and back; I was able to continue both treatments without any more difficulty. Jay was sitting next to me when I sat up and he said "Talk to me" and when I told him how I was feeling, he had just about every nurse he could find around me. So, it was all about me for about thirty minutes yesterday! I thought I was having a hot flash at first. Guess not. Hopefully, the reaction is out of my system now and the last two chemo treatments will be fine.
Otherwise, except for tired, I'm good. No nausea and we even went to lunch today. Nice to get out and enjoy lunch with my hubby. We thought about golf today, but it was sprinkling when we left Rock Bottom, so we came home and I napped for two hours. Such a hard life!
I hope you are all doing well and planning great summer fun. It's fun watching my garden take on a life of it's own, once all the prepping is done. Enjoy the sounds of summer!
