A Rough Day

    I have had a really rough day. Still quite nauseated and now super owie from the taxol and neulasta from yesterday. I have also had trouble with being dizzy and woozy. The dumb reaction I had to the Benadryl has seemed to really take a toll on me this time. Gramita has been great to help me run my Iv fluids the past 2 days. I am hoping that the extra fluids will help flush all the "yuck" out of my system. I have been struggling with the fogginess and chemo brain terribly this time too.......
    Hi! It's Lex now because my momma keeps forgetting what she's doing with a phone in her hand! She also keeps forgetting words or mixing them up. It's usually kind of comical, but today she's pretty hard to understand. Her left arm is hurting pretty bad too because of the blood pressure cuff that rapid response had to put on her. She's not supposed to have blood pressure taken on that arm because of the lymph nodes that were taken out when she originally had the mastectomy. All in all, it was a pretty miserable day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better! As always, thank you so much for the prayers and love! - Alexa

Melissa says she is feeling less fuzzy this morning. She said her head didn't feel attached and her fingers wouldn't work. I'm always glad to hear of some improvement so I figured you all would want to know too. She says her "reaction adventure" has thrown her for a loop! Please just keep the prayers coming! Thanks a million ~ Nicole
