Had a good night's sleep again so ready for my 3rd EC at 2pm. I have had some toast for breakfast and several cups of decaf tea, and a banana. That should keep me going until its time for dinner after chemo.
I arrived early just after 12.30 as I forgot and they forgot to give my Aprepitant to take prior to today's session, I got called in and told to take a seat and the nurse would come and see me in a little while.
While I was waiting a lady that was already having treatment started chatting with me, which was lovely as the last 2 visits people haven't really spoken. After chatting for a few mins she called the nurse as she thought she was having a reaction, I could see that she was as her neck and face got redder and redder, she also had pain in her back. The nurses quickly administered whatever meds were needed to stop the reaction and make her safe, another nurse went off and spoke with a Dr. Within a couple minutes she was fine again and not the colour of her lipstick. I was so happy that she recovered from it all so quickly. She started chatting again and said she felt a funny wave go across her chest. She was on her second Paclitaxel, which is what I will be on after the next EC. She must have been feeling OK as she was soon munching on a sandwich and having a cuppa. They left her a while, took her for a little walk, then restarted it at a slower rate, over 6 hours. So unfortunately she was going to be there till after 8pm today. 
she didn't have anymore reactions up until the time I left which was really good to see.
I was connected upto my first IV just after 1pm so a whole hour early, I do find that I get a funny tingling feeling in the nether regions for about 1min when they put the first infusion going. The nurse said its the IV Ondanserton. All was finished and I was on my way home again by 3pm. I have all my meds including the Aprepitant to take before my next session.
I showed the nurses the photo of my blisters and they said that maybe it's a reaction to the cleaner they use, so to see if the district nurse has some iodine to use instead so I will message them later. They agreed that it looked really sore, I said it was and nearly broke me.
I have had a good dinner tonight, followed by my meds, including amatryptaline and stool softeners hopefully I will sleep a bit better that way. I will need reflux gloop to as dinner already repeating itself, but I have to make the most of food for the next few days before my taste dissappears again.
Will try and stay up until 8pm atleast tonight, if I start dozing I will go up earlier xx
