I was feeling like crap last night....I had to take Demerol....thank God. I woke up feeling like a 85-year old grandma all bent over, every step hurt. Oh did I mention that I threw up 4 times yesterday, once on the way to work (I couldn't even get 2 miles from the house) twice at work and one more to top off my might. Got to love chemo drugs! At least my kidneys are functioning and I'm not on dialysis.
Today I feeling okay and so I wet to my first aqua aerobic class. My physical therapist recommended it. I thought I use to bodybuilding and run my own personal training business with my husband; it will be a bunch of overweight aging women. Boy oh boy was I wrong. I'm sitting on my coach and I can barely get up to go to the bathroom. I stopped 10-minutes before the end of class.
Food for thought don't judge a book by it's cover. I need more drugs......good night.

Just remember cousin, those shoes are for you.
ReplyDeleteEventhough you endure alot, you are always smiling and put the best on the outside even when your are upside down inside.
Cousin,
ReplyDeleteThanks for being there, it means the world!
Interesting how lupus is known as the "great imitator"... I was reading your list of symptoms and found a few of them I also happen to have for whatever reason (anemia, canker sores, Raynauds). I just can't imagine how you manage all of the treatments, medications and especially the pain you have to deal with every day, on top of everything else! I whine about just the normal stress of work and school and homelife, but all of that seems trivial compared to what you have to cope with. You're truly courageous and your blog makes me realize I should be very grateful for the simple fact of my own good health.

Sarah,
ReplyDeleteIt just makes me a stronger person and I know God would not put anything on me that I can't bear. I started off with Raynauds and fatigue. If only I knew.
