Chemo #4 is done. A new biologic was added to the treatment (Avastin). This drip was small and slow for the first infusion, adding another 90 minutes to my other "goodies". Total time was 5 hours! The nurse said the next time the new drug will only last 30 minutes.
The got the pump (have it for 2 days) which took another hour. Long day! Started at 9:00 a.m......home at 4:30.
Glad I have tablet where I can watch Netflix movies. New side effects are possible, but so far the only ones I notice are tingling fingers (sensitivity to cold) and stiff legs.
Tomorrow will most likely be a day of rest. My appetite today was good and I was able to enjoy a chicken sandwich, fries and milk from Jack in the Box after Chemo. Feeling tired, but good.
Special chemo shirt from Amy for Christmas...nurses were impressed...note special pocket...and cool mask...thank you Laura!
Thank you for the prayers, love and concern. God bless and Happy New Year.
