Round #5

After my awesome week off, I went back for treatment yesterday. Since I had the extra week between treatments most of my side-effects had faded and so far this chemo hasn't been too bad.

I have the 5FU pump with me 'til tomorrow morning. Normally I will sleep as much as possible when I have the pump, but I think that's partially to be blamed for the anti-nausea medicine. So far I haven't taken any today even though I had a hardy lunch.

Still no word on the date of my surgery. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that since I'm responding so well to chemo that maybe, just maybe, I won't even need surgery. It's a long shot and probably wishful thinking, but you never know.
