So here I am three days after my first round of chemo. I spent the entire day in bed yesterday with aches,fuzz and exhaustion. And also a lovely coating over my taste buds which the nurse has informed me is normal and could last the entire time of treatments. "Fabulous" I say....I love anything that makes my food/beverages taste not normal. My hair is still intact even though my sister had me yanking on it yesterday to see if any would come out.
Today I will go back to work and see if I can pull off an event of 175 guests while not tasting things, achy and on Oxycodone. Which of course the guests will not know that I can't taste anything but might notice the heavily medicated state that I'm in. If you know me well enough you know that me not being able to function "normally" will be the biggest downfall to these treatments. I am a mover and a shaker and have no intentions of letting cancer get the best of me.
See you at the food stations..... :)
I can't wait to hear how the dinner service on narcotics went, hope you are feeling less fuzzy. You rock cancer girl!
