Chemo Day part 2

Home around 5:00.  Thank you Lisa for the lift home  The pump is bigger and heavier than I thought, but at least its only hanging out for two days. It's looks like a bigger size Walkman, about 6in. long,   It's pumps more chemo into my port.  It's water resistant so it will have to hang outside the shower on a coat hanger.   That will be interesting.

As for sleeping, it can go beside you on the night stand and continue pumping away.  It's quiet most of the time.  Only buzzes a little when it pumps now and then.   The nurse said the pack itself is mine to keep so bling it up if we want.  Any bedazzle talant out there?   LOL   She also said some pumps get names.  Of course I gave that task to Lisa and she didn't let me down. " McChemi", instead of Mc Dreamy...You Grey's Anatomy fans will understand. hahaha

Nurse Kelly said I probably won't feel nauseated for a few days because of the meds given today.  But as soon as I do, and I may not, I have meds to control it.  She also said, like a few others, that I will most likely not loose my hair but it will thin.  I'm thinking a shorter doo may be in my future.  

Thursday, the 12th, I will go get the pump removed and also meet our Radiologist, Dr. Cohen.   Next treatment scheduled for Tues., June 24.  Yep, my birthday.   If somethings opens up on Monday, I'll take it instead.  

I'll get the July Care Calendar going this week.  

Hugs,

Cindy
