Hi everyone,
My Orange dongle for the internet has decided to work today... very odd..
My hair is now falling out... I could make a wig!!!! Huge clumps in the shower this morning. I know I have alot of hair and it's to be expected with chemo to fall out, but it is still a huge shock. My sister has ordered me some scarves and a cotton cap to wear at home and on the ward when I'm back in 3 weeks time. I think I will persist with it falling out until I can't stand it much longer!!
Today I'm still on the flushing out drip... nearly a week of it...UGH!!!!! Getting fed up with dragging the stand back and fourth to the loo. Keep everything crossed for me that my level will be 0.1 today!! As then it can stop!! I'm still having various anti-fungal drugs and yesterday had 2 pints of blood. Hopefully my own blood will be a little better today. My mouth is still sore (mainly in the morning) and I have been given various mouth wash's to use. One numbs the mouth and the other leaves a coating on the teeth and gums. Hopefully it will do the trick.
Yesterday I also had my last chemo into my spine for this cycle... hurt like hell!!!! My normal consultant is away, so his stand in, had the short straw. It was the most painful thing I've ever experienced... My nerves in my legs were going crazy and I thought I'd lost my leg it hurt that much.... I'm hoping next time my consultant is here...otherwise I'll be hiding under the bed!!!!!
I think thats it...
Bye for now
Ali
