Chemo again….

Posted in Health, Life, Personal tagged , , at 12:26 pm by pdxfirefly

Well, I had chemo on Tuesday which is why I haven’t written.  This time, the treatment was Carboplatin and DOXIL.  Only I didn’t get as much DOXIL as my doctor wanted me to have so I may not have as good of a response this time around.

But if you want to gauge the success of the treatment on the amount of side-effects, then I should be cured!  I felt good the first two days, thanks to the heavy-duty steroids and IV anti-nausea meds.  But today ~ WOMP!  The nausea hit hard.  I am trying to keep it at bay and I am about to make my second call to the Oncology nurse for more information if the nausea doesn’t settle down a bit.  Maybe I need to go and have a little bite of something.  This nausea is probably caused by the amount of Carboplatin that I have had over the last three years….. So, I ‘ll just power through…

    Put your trust in the Lord.
    Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
    But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice.
    O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust; save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me.
    In the Lord put I my trust.
    The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
    May the Lord bless you and give you peace in your heart and in your body.
