I was really hoping to go over a year without being in the hospital, but I only made it exactly a year. Oh well, I needed to go in so I did and am now improving after being home for a couple of weeks. 6 days in a little room is a long time! I was tethered on one side with oxygen and the other was the IV. For 6 days. At least the food was decent.
Unfortunately all this resulted in a 3.5 week chemo break which means hair has started growing so now my glue-on eyebrows won’t stay on. Such problems. Eyebrows really do make you look less sick so I’m now looking forward to my hair falling back out so I can put them back on.
In the meantime, I’m rotating through my jewelry for a little pretty.
I’m planning to talk to my oncologist this week to see what the pros and cons on a treatment change would be and if I could come back to this treatment if what we try next doesn’t work. I’m sick of being sick and would like to do something to improve my lungs. Supplemental oxygen really isn’t fun. Time to advocate.
