I’m feeling rather down today and that’s expected. The oncologist gave good advice on Wednesday. He said to start taking the Ibuprophen in the morning BEFORE my Neulasta shot. I followed his advice. Although I’m not as perky as I might be, I’m not experiencing nearly as much pain as I usually do at this part of my treatment.
I will stay home and do some work form home today. I have found that I can sit on the sofa with my laptop in my lap and get some work done and it’s quite comfortable position.
I slept surprisingly well last night. I expect to wake up frequently, but I woke up at 1:30, took some more ibuprophen and went back to sleep.
I did my 2-mile walk this morning, but could only get in 6 pushups and 12 sit-ups.
I’m 160 Lbs this morning, down one from yesterday. My normal weight is about 155 Lbs so I’m doing very well on the weight issue.
So far, food does not taste too good. I have found two foods that go down well: asparagus and ice cream. Fortunately, after today my taste buds should start to rebound. I have some surplus weight and I just need to tough it out.
I’m making some coffee this morning and I think that might perk me up a bit.
