A little more about cancer.

This isn't about a goal; it's more about cancer stuff.

I did chemo this week. (Tuesday; two days ago.) 

Chemo wasn't bad right away. They told me to have a ride home, (which I did,) but I didn't need one. 

I was ok going home, and even grocery shopping. However, mid-grocery shopping, I started to feel ill. (Not like a Beastie Boy. That'd be some sweet chemo.)

I got home and laid down. I felt pretty nauseated, but not the worst. It kept getting worse, and eventually I took Compazine. (A drug that's supposed to stop you from throwing up.) 

It made me feel drunk. 

Not a little drunk. Super drunk. 

Everything was spinning until I closed my eyes, then I started falling. 

Chemo has gone through stages of being only a little bit nauseous, two full on heaving, to be totally fine, to back to throwing up again.

I only had to do one dose of this, and I know so many other cancer patients a gun so many more. I really feel like a wuss with what I'm going through.

If you know anyone is going through chemo, be aware that it sucks.

Quick update.  It's not Saturday.  I've eaten something non-cracker-ish or Gatorade for the first time in three days.  

We went to Max & Erma's for lunch.  

I was really hungry.  

Now I'm nauseated again.  

Yesterday was supposed to be the worst of the nausea so I hope that's true.
