Nine days after my final chemo treatment, I see some small
progress. My brain isn’t as fuzzy as it
was; and I have actual little bursts of energy.
I think that I’m a tiny bit less of a slug than I was a couple of weeks
ago. Bad news is that there’s NO progress
with my taste buds.
A timely query from a cousin gave me a jump start back in my
genealogy projects. I was very into that
for a couple of days, but then ran out of energy. But I’ve got a good start on resuming the
things I was working on before all this cancer stuff started.
I had a good meeting with my radiation oncologist. Side effects from that should be limited to
fatigue and skin damage similar to severe sunburn. I’m so fair that I’ve had more than my share
of severe sunburns so I know what it’s like to have blisters & peeling. Next meeting is a planning meeting on March
18 to set up preparation and schedule.
I’ll get zapped every day Monday through Friday for 6 ½ weeks. At least it’s only a 10 minute drive from
home.
Hair continues to regrow slowly. Very slowly. But at least
it’s there.
With any luck, my brain will continue to clear and I’ll find
my energy level increasing. Come on
taste buds!!!!!!
Great to hear! Hope radiation is easily tolerable.
