Most of the weekend I felt pretty good.
This morning, it feels like the chemo is kicking in.
I was bound up yesterday--now today, it's the total opposite.
The pain gremlins are skipping all over--a twinge here, a twinge there.
So far nothing I can't handle.
Not nauseous, but nause-ish; so I took an anti-puke pill--it seems to be working.

i'm just curious-does "the total opposite" come out of the blue or first thing in the morning?

because that could make running down to sally's beauty supply kinda tricky.

TMI Zonker.

Ahem.
I went to Sally's on Saturday, while still stabilized by the anti-nausea drug.
I would not have gone there today.
Today was not fun--coated mouth, achy, needed a nap.
Woke up to dropping blood sugar--fixed that, which improved my condition.
Mouth feels better now, but achiness all over my li'l green bod.
Grateful as long as I'm not feeling pukey.

Wednesday, and nothing is happening "back there".
But I feel like stuff is getting busy--if ya get my "drift".
If no result, I will call the doc in the morning.
Think soft thoughts for me . . .

i do believe she got to the bottom of it.

A clear cloaca is a happy cloaca.
(Try to say that three times quickly.)
Or just google "cloaca".

Considering some expected mucus membrane sensitivities,
(not yet--knock on wood )
I am planning to ask my DME if they can get me a sleepweaver elan.
If I have nose/face trouble, it might be good to have a handy alternate.
I have used this mask before, but stopped--now I may use it again when needed.

DME is no dang help--they say they "can't get" sleepweaver. Big surprise.
Trying to order from cpap.com.
DONE
Love those guys!

The phone lines are really stacked--it took 27 minutes in all;
but it only cost $59 and they comped the shipping--just because I asked.

that's not too bad in either price or wait time, particularly as i'll bet they are as busy as hell right now.

My feelings exactly.
The operator confirmed my thought.
And my thank yous were profuse, to say the least.
