The main side effects of the new regimen of chemo drugs, which has affected Husband pretty badly so far, is the lack of energy and the lack of appetite. And, instead of having any diarrhoea, the total opposite has happened! Kind of like being plugged up! He is most uncomfortable, and the discomfort makes the pain in his tail bone even worse than usual.
As to hair loss - well, we won't know that yet. Not for another 2-3 weeks. Not worried about it though - as all the side effects are reversible once chemo is stopped. I guess the key question is WHEN will chemo ever stop???
We have two of our close friends from SG coming over this weekend - HP and Tony. It will be great to have them here, as it will help to take Husband's mind of things too. Oh, it is also Husband's birthday this coming Sunday June 14th - he will be 70, the best looking 70 year old in the world! - and I just hope and pray that there will be MANY MANY more birthdays ahead.
Till next time, keep Husband in your thoughts and prayers and, as always, stay safe, stay HEALTHY.
