Tuesday 11:30

I got Dose 6 at 7am this morning. I got some nausea yesterday once and this morning. I'm flush (red face and arms and a bit warm). My endurance is shot: I just sat up to get this netbook and was breathing hard and fast. No more walking the halls here! These effects should all leave in the days follow the IL-2 stopping. My last dose is Thursday at 11pm.

I have no pain but I'm too shot to leave the bed except for the bathroom and barely for that. It's hard to get comfortable probably just from being in the bed too long. Cheri and Julia have been great about watching and helping me. Tomorrow Debbie (my niece) watches me for the work day and Thursday, the last and possibly worst day, Dane and Rose are coming during the work day. I probably go home Saturday morning. I hope I get my endurance back for Valentine's day for a nice dinner!

I'm also retaining a bunch of water. It hasn't puffed out anything but my face somewhat. They just gave me something to make me shed the water.

  1. Ralph Hang in there it sounds like your doing better then most who go through the meds. I have been thinking and preying for you to make it through the treatment.
    God bless you and take it easy
