Side Effects and Moving Walls
My treatment in Bullhead went well. They just moved into a new facility and the chemo room is very large with new recliners and a closed captioned TV, so you don't have to listen to it blasting throughout the entire room. I had to meet with the P.A. and oncologist first, so of course I didn't get in on time, but they were very pleasant. The chemo nurse was also very nice and they have a well stocked fridge and yummy snacks. (That is very important!) Mike is thinking that he is going to start chemo with me next time so he can have free juice and snacks... what a great idea!
I felt pretty good, just a little tired and I didn't feel much like eating. I went to bed fairly early and slept until 2am before I desperately needed to go to the bathroom. I had to go so bad that I forgot to unplug my VAC from the AC and ran into the side of the bed as I was unplugging it. My eyes were burning and I couldn't quite get them open (must be a funky side effect of the chemo or the anti-nausea medicine), so I made it the rest of the way around the bed with my eyes half closed, but ran into the wall....twice. I finally made it into the bathroom with only a couple of bruises and my bladder still intact.
I haven't checked my hair yet this morning.... I think it is still there! I did find out that I won't be needing that bikini wax that I have always been wanting! (TMI- I know!)
