Things seem to be going a lot better for me right now. I have not been feeling bad at all for several days. I am still a little tired, but I guess that goes with not getting enough sleep because I stay up too late and I still got up at 8 am. Besides which I don't really do enough exercise. I went into town this morning for labs again. I hate it when they stick me to get blood! Although it is just one quick poke in the port, it seems to get more painful each time they do it. Since I get that poke each week, I should be getting used to it, but it seems worse each time! Today they asked me if I wanted them to spray me with cold this time. I think next time I will ask them to try that so I would know if it is easier or not. The nurse who poked me said that it would deaden the nerves so that I would feel the poke, but that it would burn later. I guess I will have to try it next time to see if it is any better.
I get to go back in Friday for a CT and at that time I will get poked again. This is something that is required for the study I am on. I guess they will do next week's labs then as well because I am not scheduled to go to the AIU until after I see the doctor next Monday even though that is my first stop before seeing the doctor before treatments usually. It looks like next week, I see the doctor then go to AIU for treatment. Hopefully all is well then!
Good luck xx
