Hi Erica and to everyone,
I hope you are all doing ok.
I have just finished my 8th chemo infusion (Bendamustine & Rituximab).
All going fine but starting to be quite gruelling with having to travel to London & back on two consecutive days. The fatigue and nausea seem to be getting slightly worse the more I have.
It’s having a great result though with my paraprotein lowering from 52 to 17 which is fantastic news which fills me with hope and strength!
I have 4 more infusions to go which finish at the end of April
Oh @sajdee great to hear from your again.
Yes, your treatment regime does sound quite gruelling, it is not just the actual treatment I find that it is so exhausting it is the whole day that gets to me emotionally, physically, psychologically and practically.
Roll on the end of April for you.
Be very kind to and really look after yourself oh, and please do keep posting
G day Ann.
