It's been a week since my first chemo.  I can't believe it's only been a week.  Time hasn't been going as fast as I'd like it to!  Everyone says I should start feeling better about a week after chemo, so that's today.  Do I feel better?  Negative.  I puked all weeks worth of food up on Monday and haven't quite recovered from that yet.  I have a hard time sleeping at night, my ears and throat hurt....I feel like I have the flu. 
Anyway, hopefully what everyone says is true and I start feeling better by the end of today, tomorrow at the latest.  I tried my hardest to go to work today and I even got as far as taking a shower!  I didn't make it much further than that though.  I ended up back in bed and slept for a few more hours.  I had mono when I was in college and I thought that was bad....this is nothing compared to that!  Just writing this forces me to find every little bit of energy I have.  My next chemo is the 17th, so hopefully I can have a few normal days before I get my butt kicked by the chemo again!
Alright, that's all I have to say.  I wasn't going to update, but with all of the people reading this, I wanted to let everyone know I'm still alive and kickin'. :)
Have a good day!
