Such a roller-coaster that chemotherapy puts you through. One day you feel great and the next day, you just want to sleep all day.
Overall, I am so blessed and thankful that I do not have the side-effects that everyone warned me about. There are so many medications to counteract the negative effects. Which I suppose now makes me a junkie - but at least I feel well.
Saturday and Sunday I was able to take a few walks. Not very far, but just enough to rev up my energy and metabolism. I also walked to get my haircut and get a few groceries. The weekend also included cooking a few dinners which I missed so much.
Today, was not that grand. I think I took 3 naps. It's not a "I feel bad" feeling. It's just waking up and still feeling like you could sleep for over 8 more hours. Sort of like if you wake up in the middle of the night to go pee :)
This week will probably consist of many naps while I look forward to feeling better next week. The best part of this week is I realized I haven't shaved my legs in almost a week - and I don't need to. Now, that is a great benefit to chemotherapy!!!
