It's been days since my 2nd round of chemo and I'm still dealing with side effects. There's just no rhyme or reason or pattern. Last time I had chemotherapy, I would improve each day after the treatment. Granted it may not be big improvements each day, but the symptoms would be less severe. Not this time. Every day so far, I have the same long list of side effects, which trade places with each other as to which one will be the most bothersome. There's nothing I can really do about it either. Half of the side effects are from meds to deal with the side effects of chemo. It's like my body is a battle ground, particularly my digestive tract. I'm not sure which symptom will be the winner of the daily battle, but as God is my witness and source of faith, I will be the ultimate winner of the war.
