Day 1 of Chemo
We started the chemo yesterday and actually got our first dose last night and finished it at around 2 am. She tolerated it fairly well. She had a rough time staying asleep and was eventually wide awake at 2am and I think at this point she was feeling bad. She started to be whiney and stuff. But they gave her Benadryl by IV and she has been out since then. She didn't have a nap yesterday so she was worn out and then chemo on top of it well you can imagine.
I am pretty sure this is how you spell the name of the drug she received last night. Cystplatin.
She will receive Vincristine in the morning and we will go home. But I am so thankful she was able to rest through most of it last night.
I feel like I have been hit by a train and just really tired. But a shower and Diet Dr.Pepper should help.
I will try to post more details later today about her treatment plan.
