Two Week Post Chemo Update

Happy April, Friends!

It's been just about 2 weeks since my first chemo infusion and I've got to say that each day is almost completely different as the day before in terms of what symptoms I am experiencing. 

Here is a quick recap of how I have been feeling: 

  • Days 4,5, & 6 post chemo: awful, awful, awful. I was pretty sick, which in term made me super dehydrated, which then made me even more sick. I ended up having to go in to get fluids at the hospital on the 5th day after chemo.

  • Days 7, 8 & 9 post chemo: A whole lot better, but still had a hard time eating much of anything and anything I did eat made my stomach pretty upset. I stuck with eating a lot of bland-ish food like noodles and toast and baked potatoes.

  • Days 10-now post chemo: I'm feeling pretty good and doing my best to prepare my body for round #2 of chemo which is next Friday, April 9th. I still have an iffy tummy a lot of the days, but it is significantly better than how I initially felt!

I appreciate all of the love and support people have been sending my way. I see all of the well wishes, donations and gifts that are sent to our house and I am just so completely overwhelmed that I have this many people who care and are rooting me on in this battle. I love you all so very much. 

Thank you all for the continued support!
