Health update 3/19/26


Received the immunotherapy med today. First infusion of each cycle I will get it. It lasts about 6 weeks. 80% dose today to watch for adverse reactions. So far none. I was given IV benadryl first because stupid mast cells (yes, I asked) and promptly fell asleep. Slept a half hour, I think. I’ve been woozy ever since.

After that the Abraxane. Hair is falling out at an alarming rate. Not in clumps, more like a waterfall. I’m so tired of cleaning up my hair. It may stop, I may be bald. No way to know.

It was a long day, we were there for 6 hours. Next week should be lickity split.

Like this cat, I shed like her.

A couch flipped onto its back with gray striped tabby lying on it. Brownish walls, a small chiming clock on the right, a painting of a red heart with roots, a yellow glow around it and a green background. A fireplace mantel with plants.

And there was more of this except today I was in a room with a bed and a view rather than a cubicle.

I’m in a hospital recliner wearing soft booties and big mittens, both filled with gel ice packs. Heated blankets on my lap, a water bottled tilted to my mouth with mitten hands.

Until next time, friends. 🙂 ❤️
