New Day by Alicia Keys I do not own the rights to this music.
I picked this title for the content, not necessarily the song. But you can rarely go wrong with Alicia Keys :)
New chemo, new day. Here's the skinney:
The new common name of the chemo is Trodelvy. The most common side effects are:
Diarrhea or loose stools
Nausea or vomiting
Anorexia or Appetite Losess
Constipation
Alaopecia or Hair Loss
Low White Blood Cell Count
TRODELVY® (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy) is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with triple-negative breast cancer (negative for estrogen and progesterone hormone receptors and HER2) that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery, and who have received two or more prior treatments, including at least one treatment for metastatic disease.
My first treatment was a brutal day. I had to be there by 9:30 to get checked in, then off for labs. That was the first hiccup. My port had not been accessed in months so it took a blood clot remover to draw blood from it. That took about 40 minutes. Then wait on lab results (another 40 minutes), then the pharmacy (another 20 minutes or so), then we start the 3-hour infusion, only after they inject me with 5 pre-chemo meds to help with tolerance. Bottom line, I wasn't out of there until about 3:30. Ugh! The bad thing was halfway through the infusion, I started to feel nauseas. I fought through it and didn't get sick but I will ask if they can up the short term anti-nausea premeds next week.
I was exhausted and fought nausea on and off all night. Some of it was chemo related but most was excess mucus related. Damn cancer!!
However, I continue to gain stamina and strength every day. I no longer spend most of the day napping. Yay! Hope the chemo works!!
Keep prayers coming!
I'll miss you forever, my friend <3
