Cancer Support

Without much issues yet other than heartburn and constipation, but it’s only going on 4 days. You would have all had a chuckle. I looked like a kid going to his first day of school. Packed so much stuff to take, then had to get hubby to come up and help me down with other stuff they gave me - including a quilt.

I’m awake dealing with the Neulasta shot side effects now. Everything aches - ribs, knees, ankles, arms, etc. I’m on Claritin, Advil, and Tylenol for the pain from that.

Think I might look for a way I could chill my hands when I go next time. They don’t do cold therapy, but said I could bring my own. I pretty sure the cold gel packs won’t keep cold enough to get through 3 hrs of Taxol, let alone the Carboplatin. I do polymer clay sculpture, needle felting, and wire wrapping as hobbies and would hate to lose the feeling in my hands.
