beckyg Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Thanks for asking. WEdnesday night I took my usual dose of steroids and yesterday felt like my old self again. Now I am taking half a dose each day instead of a full dose every other day. Last ngiht I was able to sleep. This morning I have the brain fog I had on Wednesday, but not as bad. I feel much better than I did Wednesday all over. Now I know why they wean you off steroids instead of just abruptly stopping them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay A. Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Becky, Glad to hear things are better. I'm a bit slow...started chemo yesterday, but the premeds the day before: that's a big WooHoo on the Dexamethasone. I was just a little bit wired...had more energy than I've had in ages. And I woke up yesterday morning not needing supplimental oxygen for most of the day, except for the time they were infusing the Taxotere. Then I had to go back on the Oxygen. Shortly after I stopped the Taxotere and was on the Carboplatin I didn't need the O2 again for several hours. It was really nice not to be tied to a tank. I've been thinking about you and yours and sending my best wishes your way. Much affection, Fay A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
