Had second chemo today took 3 hrs. Now have my ball and chain ( Bum bag and Pump) until thursday. Straight away I got pins and needles and the nerve endings of my fingers, toes, lips and this time eyelids all prickling, my eyelids went into spasm and I couldn't open them. It felt really funny and made me laugh. It had calmed down before I got home. Didn't have any sickness with round 1. Just feel a little queasy and tired at the moment.
Listening to other peoples experiences I feel soooo lucky. I am not lulled into a false sense of security I do realise that it is a cumalative affect and that as things progress I can expect more. Until then I thank my lucky star's that I am getting off lightly.
Hug and kisses to all others on here who have their own battle to win XXXXX.
