Just finished three syringe fulls of the "Red Devil" (Adriamycin)...looks like red Kool-Aid and apparently I'll be seeing this later. This was followed by a small syringe of Oncovin. Feeling fine with a couple of new scripts, Zofran and a topical numbing cream for the skin above the port.
No, I won't be selling any leftovers and you can stop asking about the medical weed (I will resist naming names). Although I voted enthusiastically this Fall to pass the bill, I won't be exploring that avenue anytime soon. Keeping an open mind though...
We are done with the first round. Despite the hiccup with R, the day just floated by and I'm ready to continue the battle at home while celebrating Xmas with the family.
5 to go. Whew.
