I'm on the third day after my infusion now. The first two have been easy with my only side effect being fatigue, so I've been resting and sleeping more than I usually do, which I actually like, as I normally can't take naps. I'm feeling a little more nauseous today but trying to stay ahead of it with the anti-emetics they prescribed for me. Also starting to notice the taste of foods and drink - especially coffee - are starting to dull. The strange thing is that I had radiation pneumonitis in March and since the prednisone treatment finished I've been waking up in the mornings wheezing a little and coughing when I get up and walk around until my lungs clear. They've told me I have some slight COPD so I've attributed it to that. As of yesterday, I'm waking up with totally clear lungs. It's highly doubtful that it's the alimta and carbo somehow working this soon, but whatever is causing it I'll take it. I have no idea what to expect this week re: further side effects, will keep you posted if you'd like. I keep reading it tends to hit people harder on the 3rd and 4th days, I'll see what happens.
