Made it through the weekend without to much misery. I had forgotten how jumbled up your insides feel after the chemo. And how tired you feel. I have been getting a pretty nasty almost metallic taste in my mouth in the morning when I wake up - don't remember that from the first chemo session.
Jim and I went to the Louisville Irish Fest on Saturday. Good music...and the weather was nice After a week of rain..it was nice to see the sun again..although it did make for a pretty hot day. That pretty much took all my energy for the day. Came home a laid on the couch the rest of the day.
Sunday we cleaned the house...well...I basically just vacuumed the living room...which wiped me out. We went to the movies in the afternoon...we saw The Informant...ehh..it was OK. Then it was back to the couch. I tried out a new Mac & Cheese recipe for dinner...it was good...but..did not agree with my stomach. It was too rich I think.
Started getting a little depressed Sunday evening. I had forgotten how miserable the post chemo recovery is....and knowing I have to go through it all over again a 3rd time is not fun. I know I should be happy that the sessions have been cut to 3 vs. 6...cause..honestly..I don't know how I would be handling the thought of having to feel like this 4 more times. I can't wait to get back to how I was feeling the 2nd and 3rd week after the 1st chemo session.
