Hi Colleen ,
I’m getting Carboplatin and Penetrexed. One infusion every 3 weeks for total of 4 treatments. I’ve only had one infusion so far and that was 3 days ago. Lots of fatigue, little nausea , overall not too bad. So far for me it’s been more of a mental stress than physical, but I’m sure the rest is coming. Trying to stay strong and positive ❤️

Day 4 after chemo. Today comes the nausea… combatting it with medication, tons of water and keeping some food in my stomach. No big meals for me- Mac and cheese, oatmeal with fruit, etc. it’s such a beautiful day outside, sunny for the first time in days - maybe take a walk outside and force myself to move a little bit. Pushing through and hope you all are too. ❤️🙏😇
