First F.A.C.

I think this is the longest I've gone without blogging since my cancer diagnosis - 16 days.

Me receiving the 'Red Devil' - Adriamycin

I had my first FAC chemo on Sept. 12th. It seemed to go okay while I was at the infusion center. The next day and a half I didn't feel too different than what I did with the Taxol chemo. 

But on the latter half of the second day I started getting very fatigued. I started dozing on the couch, then I would get up to nap in the recliner, then the chemo fog came back and was thick so I finally went to bed at 8:30 pm, and that's the way it went for the next several days. 

On the following Tuesday I felt like I was coming out of it some, but it came back the next day and I developed sinus problems along with a cough. Thankfully, the allergy meds I'm allowed to take took care of that problem.

I know I am more fatigued now that at any time before. I went out to check the mail yesterday and almost regretted it on the way back. I couldn't believe I could feel that weak so quickly!

Thank God, He saw me safely back to the house where I crashed in a chair for awhile feeling weak and shaky. 

Today I am still fighting fatigue, but I feel a bit more clear-headed than I have in some time. We will see how I do after today and until the next treatment. 

Hopefully, I will have the strength to blog about it before the next visit!
