I just completed my 1st round also. I’m starting Day 4. I am feeling very rough, kind of like having the flu. I am usually up at 5, getting ready for work, but now wake up at 6 or 7, and takes quite a while before I feel like I’m actually awake and able to function. I will be working through this, no choice, and worked during my initial infusion. I also wear a pump for 46 hours after the initial infusion (worst part). I knew I would have bad days, but so far no good days. I can cross one off the calendar, though, and that’s a good thing!

The post shared by the gentleman who talked hydration nailed it.
Im taking the fluid after my pump is done and again a day later.
Helps! Also trying to find a beverage that helped was using a pack of infuse drink mix in water.
Hang in there, this group is awesome 👌
