So - now ok after weekend scare neutropenia apparently. Maybe a urinary tract infection- results awaited
But feeling good yesterday and today: trip out in Morgan today and even thought about cleaning it - shows I'm feeling better
That said - on penicillin bombs 700mg 3 times a day until Saturday
Still drinking vast quantities of water to avoid repetition. I lose about 5 pounds each night (sweats) but rehaik…
Oh dear - I see why I was tired
Saturday morning developed a temperature 38 degrees and called into hospital - here I am 24 hours later full of antibiotic via drip and non stop saline and much perkier! Temp back to normal
Doc gave a stomach injection of white blood cells (?) and another due shortly
Staying in another night to verify ok to go home
A salutary warning to keep tabs on your temperature or things…
10 days since rchop - after good day yesterday - very tired today.
Blood pressure seems low so checked in with nurse explaining tired etc
Also seem to have lost half a stone in about a week! Have been eating (hard work) maybe it's the lymphoma melting!!
Resting now and drinking buckets of water so up and down to the loo day and night adding to tiredness
Otherwise ok - bowels fairly regular with laxido
…
Updated at one week from first rchop chemo
Bowels still ok with help from laxido
No nausea
Quite tired now as evening approaches
Not wanting to do too much - but otherwise pretty good
Ok - first day no steroids - not too tired so far - been singing 90 mins at charity do - so expecting some tiredness. Napped pre lunch over Observer
Biotene a saliva miracle has done well to sort out dry mouth and give food some flavour and help appetite
Bowels working daily with help of Lacido once a day pm
Hoping Monday is not a downer
