Chemotherapy, round 4

Hey everyone, this is round 4 of my prescribed chemotherapy regime. I had the treatment yesterday at UK hospital and all went as planned. My infusion began at 8 and I was checked out of there by 3. It was in stark contrast to my chemotherapy session 3 where I was there from 8-6 because the doctors where checking the results of my lymphatic biopsy, which turned up negative. The nausea has hit me sooner than expected this time because normally I don't get sick until two or three days after treatment. I did manage to get to the office for a few hours this morning so that was a blessing. Hopefully, my nausea won't last long and I will be out causing trouble in no time.
After this session, I only have 2 more treatments to go unless my doctor thinks I need more. The main reason for the early nausea is that my doctor increased my dosage. I know she is trying to do whats best for me, but I'm not sure how much I can take. Thank you all for sticking with me on this wild ride.....I will continue to keep you updated through this blog.
Until next time,
Kyle
