Feeling Good - No More Nausea

Hi Everyone.
Well, I'm on Day 9 of my chemo break and doing well (except for this darned cold and and cough I woke up this morning).
I was finally able to stop taking anti-nausea meds 3 days ago (though still taking Imodium ocassionally). The only problem is the fatigue - it is the most extreme I've ever felt and I can't seem to stay up past 8:00pm. If I take naps that only make it worse.
For the most part though, it's good - no chemo fog (though I will still use chemo brain as an excuse whenever I have to), and I even started working out again yesterday (which is probably why I have this cold today, haha).
Going to Houston on Sunday for Thanksgiving.
I hope all is doing well.
Susan

Great Susan, happy to see your post, and see you are over the nausea. That is terrible we have to have that. I finally got emend this time and it really helped, also neulasta did not make me hurt all over like the last times. I wish you the very best Thanksgiving, you have been through so much and are so very strong. Be safe and get over that cough and cold soon. God Bless and enjoy, enjoy.

Susan, wonderful news. On the cold, wash your hands a lot. I'm fanatical about it. Hands are chapped all the time in this weather, though.

Enjoy Thanksgiving in Houston. Getting together with my six kids on Thanksgiving here in DC. Actually, have to video in my son who is at his in-laws. Ah, the magic of technology.

Will call my brother-in-law with stage IV NSCL C.

Hugs,

Dick
