Well that was weird! And I don’t really know where I’m back from?
This last weekend was the first NADIR weekend after going 12 weeks without the Taxotere and also with no clinical trial drug. A lot of my symptoms are shared by the 2 drugs but I did notice some symptoms that weren’t there because there was no trial drug. Either way….and I’ve said this many times….this stuff ain’t for babies!
I felt pretty good Monday afternoon which is what usually happens. I had labs on Tuesday and they came back and said my white blood counts had gone way down…don’t they always? Apparently not this much. Not with me. It was off the charts low….the scale only goes down to .04 and they said mine was at .01!!! HUH! I didn’t feel that bad! Susceptible to catching something I guess, but …….anyway I got a scrip and headed home. Hell! I was going to the office!
Well it apparently “double clutched”! on into Wednesday. So here it is Thursday and I’m just now getting back!.....And even into the office.
The drugs used to stimulate the white blood cells do so in the bone marrow. It causes minor bone pain but not constant….Some times it’s not really even a pain but more of a sensation…..like stretching your legs after a long sit. Oh and by the way; I’ve had to delay my 10-K run yet again!
A couple of things: If you’ve read anything about Japanese history you probably know that for centuries they were a closed society, very structured and no one entered (might explain why they didn’t fight over the water bottles).......I find it curious that their most recent history has all been ….nuclear!
Did you know that the only animal on this planet that cry’s tears are human beings? Why is that?
What kind of drugs do you think they’re taking over at the KIA plant these days?........Have you seen the commercial where the alien spacecraft picks up a KIA and dumps it on a Mayan Temple? I love the ad but it’s out there.
Soooo I guess we’ll wait and see what the numbers say after this. It better be good!
The Prayers and Spiritual Energy are felt....Thank you all so much!! B.
Hey Bob! I'm so glad to hear you're on the rebound. Had to comment on the tears. My dad always said that there are two human emotions you're not supposed to hide because they're too important ....emotions made physical: laughter and tears.
