Saturday February 5, 2011- Day 33

So I wake up still nauseous, sore, tired..apparently the usual for chemo. I take the 2 Dexamethasone, 1 Loratadine and 1 Oxycodone to try to ease the pain. My roommate and I are going to breakfast this morning with his sister. Now had I been paying attention I would've noticed that the Dexamethasone specifically says take with food so I shouldnt have popped it not knowing how soon I was going to be eating. I assumed it would be pretty quick, but it ends up taking 2 more hours before we finally go to breakfast. The meds kick in long before then and I end up being very sick. After going to iHop I have to hurry home because I can barely hold it together. I feel nauseous and very sick. I lay down in bed and as my roommate comes and goes the rest of the day, I stay in bed trying the rest of the day to feel better. Lesson learned on the Dexamethasone. The only break in the day is when I get the news that Shannon Sharpe is going in the NFL Hall of Fame. Looks like I'm headed back to the hall in August. Something to look forward to. Til then rest and get better.
