My arm was near the picc dressing again lastnight, I put some Aloe gel on my skin which helpped a little, as it's not so sore this morning. It's better to have this discomfort my husband keeps telling me rather than risking my views being mucked up.
My oncologist phoned just after 10am and we had a nice chat. She is really pleased with how I am doing. I told her about the sleep still not great but getting better. And the sore mouth, which doesn't last long because of the difflam mouth wash. Like I was thinking she also suggested taking laxatives from chemo day for a few days, because most of the meds cause constipation. Plus to carry on with the indigestion gloop as and when needed. With regards to the loss of taste she suggested pineapple juice frozen then made into slush, as some people have said to her it works, so I might give that a try. She also suggested eating little and ofter, but I'm not so sure I could do that, but I might give it a try, but I don't want to eat too much junk food and that could probably happen by eating that way. I asked if my bloods were OK and she took a look and said yes so all will be going ahead for my 3rd EC tomorrow afternoon. I mentioned the blisters and soreness on my arm and I have to mention it to the nurses tomorrow, hopefully they will find something different to use for a dressing. Fingers crossed they do as its the only thing that is getting me down a bit at the moment.
I'm going to have a lovely shower followed by an early night tonight, I have a little head ache it feels like I have had my hair in a tight ponytail all day 
oh hang on I haven't got any hair 
3rd EC tomorrow let's hope all stays the same again after this session. Xx
