Update on chemotherapy

SCDon · Post by **SCDon** » Fri Feb 12, 2010 2:16 am

Had round 2 yesterday. Took almost 5 hours. No reactions or nausea. No side effects yet. Thank God that the size of my spleen has shrunk and I have tolerated things pretty well. I did start losing my hair this week. I shaved my head last week. Thank you all for the prayers and words of encouragement. I remain pretty optimistic. The things I learned from the program last year have helped. Take it one day at a time. Worrying about what ifs and whys really are a waste of time. Have a great day.

SCDon,

I wish you the best in your treatment and recovery. Though I've never been through your situation, friends of mine have. I know it can be taxing on the nerves. From your post you seem to be doing well. That's great.

Don, I am so glad you are not experiencing side-effects. As I have shared before the treatment success rate for lymphoma has increased exponentially! I have to commend you in the sharing of your situation. Many of us with anxiety feel we could not ever deal with issues regarding our health. The fact of the matter is we CAN and we MUST! Praise God! I know there are great things in store for you!

Peace to you
