@terradean. Thank you for the update. Your post about the side effects you are experiencing seem somewhat bearable for you. You mention that working makes the time go by for you. Are you working the same number of hours or were you able to cut back as needed? Keeping muscle on by staying active as you can is so good. It's a balance, isn't it?

Took 3 days of vacation right after 1st chemo day, but, have worked 5 days a week, and it actually keeps my brain functioning correctly. It took me awhile to be able to sleep more than 3 or 4 hrs at a time. Wasn't getting tired enough being at home to sleep much, After going back to work was sleeping correctly. It was hard first few days back because brain seemed delayed or slow but am back to functioning correctly. I am doing fine right now. Will see what happens this coming week, I will have chemo on Monday, and with vacation days and thanksgiving will only work following Saturday and then have my normal 2 days off. So, should be well rested and hopefully, feeling the same as last time.
