Today was relatively painless. I got there at 9am and they started me on a drip of Calcium and Magnesium which is to lessen the potential side-effects. After this, they gave me a drip of Steroids for the same reason. At that point, they gave the O...and L... and then I waited 15 minutes before they could give the last which was a dosage of the 5FU and then hook up the take-home pump.
I didn't have much of a problem with side effects today. Some fatigue and a funny flushed feeling. I also had some coolness on my tongue, but that is gone now.
We shall see how the 5FU affects me over the next day or two...hoping I will be right as rain (which we have plenty of right now).
The CT scan I had Sunday didn't show anything of concern and Dr. Chang gave the drugs as previously discussed.
