Sending some peace and happiness I stole off Gary.

Glad to hear that you're tolerating your chemo at least fairly well (i.e. no horrible side-effects). I hope that continues to be the case and that you will finally have beaten this thing.

2nd of chemo begins today. Yesterday was the first time I’ve had an appetite in weeks.

My bloodwork is great, no nausea, no hair loss.

Just zero energy, and having a hard time enjoying much. Like, too tired to read or even binge-watch come evening, but not tired enough to actually sleep. It’s boring shit, I’m not used to boredom, and I’m irritable.

But really, it’s all good.

Excellent news on the blood work!

How many rounds do you need to do?

Look at it this way - it's December, it's a pandemic, there's not fuckall to do anyway.

Hmmm, missing appetite. Have you checked with Smurfco? He's had a big appetite lately. He might have got your share

That's great about the bloodwork. Hope everything goes smoothly with this 2nd round.

Another 5-11 months, depending on how things go.

Well, in that case, the least you can do is buy a round for the house!

 

[nuke_diver]

Yeah if you were going to pick a year where you couldn't do anything or go anywhere you pretty much nailed it

 

[jelloman]

I’m irritable.

At least you're not constipated...

 

[Flamencology]

At least you're not constipated...

I am well-medicated on that front. Anti-irritability medicine, on the other hand, is an inexact science.

That must be very irritating...

[B Valley]

I know the feeling; too tired to do anything, but unable to sleep.
I wish you a full and speedy recovery.

 

[Denverdave]

Glad to hear that despite the tedium attached to the process, the future outlook is good. Staying alive is good.

 

[Flamencology]

Currently on Phase Three.

My cannabis intake has skyrocketed.

Is that good or bad? Does it help with pain or sleeplessness?

 

[Highernoon]

Does it fuck?

FTFY

Good! Pain isn’t a problem, but it has helped a lot with nausea and appetite.

Are you smoking or ingesting?
