So - made it through first cycle relatively unscathed. Feeling good today and up for round 2 tomorrow
Just got back from blood tests to inform chemo tomorrow
Good to be on no pills save for allopurinol which don't seem to impact day to day health
No laxido for 5 days and bowels coping fine - interesting to see when I might need again
Blood pressure pretty good - still a bit puffed after any significant exercise - doc mentioned possibly upping of iron supplements (presently 210 mg ferrous fumarate twice a day) and maybe a transfusion
Not keen on transfusion as have heard can have longer term ramifications - any thoughts on that appreciated
Fingers crossed for tomorrow - dear wife will accompany and hold hands!
