Today I spent five hours in the chemo chair. I was told that my scalp will start to hurt and that I will be losing my hair. I was also told that my blood is not thinning out enough on the warfarin and so I have to continue giving myself shots. The good thing is that with the meds that I have been taking they were able to get my port to open up without having to give me the heart attack meds.
I am home, I am wiped out, I feel weak and tired but I am alive.
I have to go back on Thursday for more blood work and they are going to pump extra fluids into me. I have to increase my Warfarin to 10 Mg. /day I also have to place tight restrictions on foods containing Vitamin K. No more than 90mcg/ day.
I have to drink 80 ounces of water/ day.
The doctor also ordered anti- anxiety medications for me so now I have to readjust all my med times.
It is time for my shot
