First chemo treatment and neulasta shot
Well yesterday was my first chemo treatment!! The first thing they did was draw blood from me to make sure all me counts were good....once they got the results back they gave me Aloxi that is an antinaesua medication then I got Decadron which is a steroid to help my body not reject the chemo then I got saline solution and then the adriamycin and then the cytoxin...did fine getting all. So I told my mommom that I feel good so we could go run an errand if she needed to. Well she had to run to Walmart to pick up a couple things and halfway thru the shopping I got extremely tired!! I got home around 130 and went right to bed!!! Slept from 130 on Wednesday til 700 this morning!!! Got a cup of coffee and went right back to sleep. Got up and got ready to go to the cancer center for my neulasta shot!! It is a shot that makes a lot of white blood cells to help heal me heal quickly so I can get my next treatment!! I am just so tired I can't believe it. I stay up for an hour and right back down to sleep and a little cranky!! Not loosing my hair yet!!

Haven't left you a blog comment for a while. I read every single one of them and thought I'd better leave you a comment. I don't know a whole lot about chemo reactions, but I was amazed at how quickly the body reacts. Enough to make you sleep all that time. I'm so sorry.
I also wanted to tell you that I was praying for you. Hopefully your only reaction will be sleepiness. That wouldn't be so bad! God's gotcha, girl! And I'm here for you if you need anything. Love ya!
