One Down, Five to Go

The first round of chemo is done. So far, so good.

My hand is a little sore where the IV went in, but otherwise I feel fine. No nausea, knock on wood. I did have one reaction...my nose started tickling and running. Apparently that happens to the odd person, and I have been called odd a time or two.

The staff was amazing. At one point I started scratching my arm and the nurse went and got a warm blanket. She says it often happens and if the area is warm then the veins expand. She said I'll want to repeat it tonight too.

I have medication to take for the next couple of days as the medicines work their way through my system.

Tomorrow, the MUGA test.
