..and now for something completely different

I fully intended to provide part 2 of my list of things not to say, but apparently my body has a different opinion. For the majority of my treatment, I have felt generally okay (what’s a little nausea in the balance of the good that the treatment is doing?)! In fact, today I told Dr. Kauh (my oncologist) that I was feeling surprisingly well; that I was expecting to feel worse and that I was pleased that I was feeling as good as I did! Dr. Kauh, who has a dark/odd sense of humor, responded that I should not expect that to continue.

Well, if I believed in such things, I would have to say I must have jinxed myself, as I am feeling pretty crappy today. Whereas last week I could get by with only one or two Compazine tablets, today I have taken at least four. I’m hoping this will pass and is, at least in part, attributable to the roast beef bones that I ate last night. Tomorrow will be better, right?

As a result, I’m going to hold off on writing my list until tomorrow in the hopes that I’ll be more up to the task then. Then again, perhaps this is just an elaborate bait and switch tactic formulated to drive traffic to my site (as I am sure that everyone who read yesterdays post called their friends and told THEM to read, too!). :-)

Talk to you later, y’all!
