Well I felt alot better today thankfully, but poor Simon had a bad day. He drove up to Melbourne to give a presentation for work, but just felt too unwell, so he had to cancel it. Fortunately he was able to pick up the prescription for the cream for his ulcer while he was up there, which is great because it was very painful for him last night. He didn't get much sleep at all, which can also be a side effect from the chemo.
He spent this afternoon in bed with a really bad sinus headache. He hadn't been taking anything for it because when they discharged him last week they told him not to even take panadol as it could mask a fever/infection. But he was just feeling so bad, so I called Dr Franco at Peter Mac, who has been really helpful and he said he doesn't believe in not taking anything for this as a fever would still get through. So Simon is feeling the best he has all day after some sudafed and panadine.
He also had a little pain on and off for a couple of days in the tumor earlier in the week, but said it was a different pain than usual. He may have felt something similar after the last round of this particular chemotherapy, so we're praying it's the drugs killing the tumor.
He said I'm not allowed to put any more about him having womanly emotions, so I won't (tonight). He has been very tough today (seriously). I love him being home with us.
