I saw PA Adam again today. My labs looked decent (would you expect anything less from me?!) and although I really talked up the nausea, mean Adam wouldn't give me any more drugs. He just told me to take the steroids for an extra day after my next chemo and also take Zantac for the indigestion (did I mention how much this feels pregnancy without the cute little newborn at the end?). I keep meaning to ask him if I can smoke pot to help with the nausea but I'm afraid he'll say no, plus it's illegal and all. A friend may or may not keep suggesting that pot is great for nausea. I personally wouldn't know because I've never tried weed...it would probably make me suuuuper paranoid. I'm just guessing, though. Seriously, no experience whatsoever.
I've been trying to come up with benefits to this cancer journey, so here's a few things that have popped up:
* It takes me no time at all to take a shower. I'm like a man now- I can literally hop in the shower & be done in 2 minutes flat.
* I'm saving a ton of money on shampoo, conditioner & hair products. That just means more money for hats!
* If I find a hair in my food, I know for a fact that it's not mine.
* I don't have to shave my legs- saving more money on razors!
* lots and lots of free drugs- sure, none of them are really anything anyone would want to take, but I sure have my own pharmacy going on
That's all I can think of for now, but I'm sure they'll be lots to add to the list. I'm only a quarter of the way through the chemo part of this journey so I'm sure some new stuff will come up!
