Round 1 Chemo treatment!

Well, I am back from my first round of the new Chemo treatment.  Stayed in the hospital for 5 days. This will happen every 21 days; because of the "RICE".   One drug runs 24 hours and one drug on the 2nd day goes every 6 hours which takes 1 hour to going the veins.  Even though I have a port since 3 drugs go in at one point; they have to put a pic line for the other 2 drugs.

You can see pictures on my husband blog.

As I stated before he is the writer not me.  Crafted and teaching.

They nurses did love the Chemo hats I was making in the hospital.  They want me to make some for them; however, I am running out of yarn.  I only have Christmas colors and that will not work.  I made 10 hats which I will post in the near future. Still have to take things slow.

I did have some same reactions to this Chemo as before like vision, nausea, and itching.  Thank goodness no vomiting; so far.  They say I will lose my hair again; but, that took 3 treatments before.  As you have seen on  Kevin's previous blog post on my first chemo treatment, I really do not look bad without hair. Now, I just look like a mind science or if I stuck my finger into a light switch.  As this point, no need to cut it.

Getting tired; so, this is it for me right now.  Hopefully, will post more after a while.  Unfortunately, with chemo brain spelling is difficult.

Well for now!
