jcawork Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 So far so good. Yesterday was 4 hours long and I was very nervous. saline for a bit, Aloxi, Decadron, Lassix and mannitol. VP 16 for 45 minutes Cisplating for 2 hours Headache and bodyaches all night Today vp16 only 2 hours ( I had them reduce the decadron from 10 mg to 4 as its too tough on me-up all night) headache and sleepy so far. Dont feel myself, but NO VOMITING so far in 28 hours!!!!!!!! A little buzzing in my ears. Taking Zofran and ativan every 8 hours at home Day three tommarow. Thank-you for all of your feedback on all my other posts and for saying my pic was nice. You have all been kind and my true support.

Remembering Dave Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Good news!! Congrats on day 2. See it's not that bad. You can make it, I know it. That decadron is wicked stuff, I hate it. And yes, by the way, a good looking brood you have there. Beautiful photo. Day 3 to come and after that it will be old news. Chemo days were special to me because I knew that what they were putting in my veins was killing the cancer, I helped it along with Shostakovich's 5th Symphony through my headphones as I was getting my chemo. Kill the cancer, kill the cancer. Hope you sleep better tonight. David C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
