Chemo Status: 4 of 8 Complete

Halfway through the chemo stage of treatment and FINISHED with the dreaded "red devil" chemo drug (doxorubicin)!

Next up: Taxol.

How do I feel? Tired, foggy-brained and yucky-mouth-feel. Sentences are hard. The funky taste in my mouth seems to fade away for my off weeks, but the need for naps continues. Allegedly, many people find the Taxol treatment easier, but everyone is different and effects can be cumulative. Here's hoping for easy! One of the new possible side effects from Taxol is peripheral neuropathy. That does not sound like fun. I'm determined to get out to walk/run more and more. I probably did a little more than necessary on Saturday though. I was due for a crash from the week's treatment and, after my run/walk, I spent the rest of the day as a zombie and took two naps (one almost 3 hours long).

Summary: All is well here, plugging along, watching roller-blading Pandas at the Olympic closing ceremonies and playing a lot of Candy Crush, because that seems to be where my brain is at.
