Friends, it has been a week. Sunday I was able to go to a book club and later go to OlderBoy’s for dinner. It was a great day that had me feeling like the person I was pre-chemo. I’m so glad I did Sunday.

Come Monday, new side effects/body trashing from chemo or the prednisone (to fix the chemo assault) were arising and staying. By early Tuesday morning I left a message on the nurse’s voicemail explaining that I believed I had a yeast infection, thrush, in my mouth and throat. A script was called in.

There was a 36-hour delay in getting it because of supply chain issues, yay! Picked it up last evening. Had a few doses and was incredibly nauseated after each one. Called the doc again this morning and left a message about the side effects.

A new Med has been called in. The hubster is picking it up now. Cross your fingers it works for me with no extra side effects! And still I’m so glad I did Sunday. And I’m sad I had to cancel my this Saturday’s plans. But time to kick this thing in the butt and to the curb.
