Today has gone well. I was able to clean the house this morning.. Larry helped too! and then off to Boston. I quickly had blood drawn and then saw the nurse.. .thinking this was going to be a quick day.. but then it was 45 mins til I was able to see the doctor.. then eventually made it up to chemo at 2:30.. and they got me start at 3:30. But my chemo nurse is great. The red stuff got pushed through so fast and now I am on the IV bag. Hoping this will go by fast too!
So last chemo for the baby! Bring on the prunes! The good news is I don't start my next chemo until August 30th! So I get over a month off!! The bad news is I will be getting taxol and herceptin every week for 12 weeks! My weekly trips to boston continue! These drugs also will take about 2 - 3 hours but they say the side effects are less... which would be great for me since this chemo wasn't bad at all. But I will have a great distraction anyways! And I can bring the baby to chemo! Probably not the first few weeks!
She is doing great.. moving around a lot! 4 weeks to go! It is coming up so fast! Ok back to downloading some labor music! Thanks everyone! xoxo

Taxol is a lot easier than the AC...you'll probably have to take decadron and benadryl prior to the taxol. Truth be told, the benadryl high would make me giggle for a good 20 minutes and then I'd sleep through most of the taxol treatment and wake up HUNGRY.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness there's a food court in Longwood...whoever was with me during treatment had marching orders to get me a meatball sub :-)
