Sassafrazzled

day two and three

Yesterday I went for my second radiation session, but first I had to talk to my doc because she messed up and needed to explain it to me. To make a kinda long story short, she hadn't looked at my pelvix xrays before my first radiation treatment, and when she did she realized that my ovaries were still in the radiation field. So they had to switch up my plan a bit, and now they're not in the way anymore. I was kinda ticked that she neglected to look at them, and actually kinda lied about it too. But everything is ok now, and day three is today.

The only thing that is going on with me is that since my first treatment, I've been very nauseous. To the point where all I've been able to hold down over the past couple of days have been soda biscuits and popsicles. I even lost it in the brand new hummer yesterday! But I had a plastic bag with me, so nothing hit the shiny new interior. I'm not supposed to be feeling any side effects at all until a couple weeks into the treatment, so my doc just wracked it up to nerves. But I'm not too sure, as I'm really not nervous about this whole thing, I just want to be done with it and move on with my life.

So yeah, I've been bed-ridden, with an empty and queasy tummy, with a bucket next to the bed, just in case.
It's my pity party and I'll sulk if I want to. But it's Saturday tomorrow and the weekend means no hospital, which means I'll be ready to be fun again! xoxo
