I couldn't seem to post on the old thread, so I'll start over here. Thanks to all the posts and support. It means a lot to me.
The chemo effects are a little like having the flu, tired and achy. And I had a bad headache, maybe the chemo drugs, or the nausea drugs, or no coffee cold turkey? I was a little nauseous, but the drugs and keeping a little something in my stomach helped. It was really only bad for one day and I only missed a couple of days of work. I also picked up my husband's cold, but feel pretty normal now.
I have a new cardiologist. When he walked in the room, all I could think was SCORE! He's really gorgeous in a czech, Luka from ER, but much better kind of way. I'm sure he's a good doctor, also. Hmm . . . my thrills are few these days.
My oncologist seems a little lost on the coumadin stuff. I'm sure I'm the only patient he's had who home tests and is involved in it. It's been something of a rollercoaster, way up after chemo then dropping too low later. But, it feels like we are working on it together and he RETURNS MY PHONE CALLS!
I'm having a good time taking my new boobs shopping. Everything fits! My friend is coming over tomorrow for head shaving and margaritas (not in that order). It hasn't started to come out yet (tingles, though) but I don't want to wait until the following weekend when I feel like crap and have it falling out in hunks. I had a meeting with a new client yesterday and wore my wig because it's longer than my real hair is now. I figured even a guy would realize that hair doesn't grow 5 inches in a couple of weeks. He took a big double take on me when he came in the room. Either he had a "spot the toupee" moment or he was just surprised that I was so hot. I'm going with "hot".
