It does get better. Other than neuropathy, I am pretty much back to homeostasis. Keeping you in my thoughts.

It's the chemo brain that's crazy. Makes you feel completely useless. At least when I was under the influence eons ago, life was grand. Here I feel like one flew over the cookoo's nest without trying to act stoopid

FWIW, I do remain positive as I am over half way there for treatment. Trying keep on the brighter side of life!!!

Yeah, chemo brain sucks. Chemo mouth was bad for me. Everything had a metallic taste and even water tasted bad.

You are right about positivity. I think learning to deal with a cancer diagnosis actually gave me a sense of peace. I appreciate life while not fearing the future.

On my first round of infusions, I had chemo mouth. That was awful.. The whole body was rejecting the poison entering the body

Remaining positive as opposed to the alternative and yes, I am not fearing the future and really looking forward to it.
 
Finally had the last (hopefully) chemo infusion yesterday. Now the course is 2 more weeks of the bloody pills and then recovery into pet scan. I am hoping this adventure is coming to a close. I will still have follow us but this is a journey I do not will on anyone. The amazing part is how many of my local musicians too have had similar adventures. Some still going through it along others who aren't musicians. Thank You Wieners for the support!!!

On the future front, setting myself up for a couple of acoustic shows in July and August and a more adventurous rock band renewal. Plus during this I had some major GAS along with some projects that I have been collecting pieces for. Can't work on anything yet as solder fumes and working with tools is not a smart thing to do during chemo brain and chemo hell.

Keep the Faith!!!
