    Ready for round 2

    back to the hospital Monday morning.
    I feel OK and relaxed, over this weekend the last threads of my hair were gone starting last Thursday.
    i really hope that it goes as round 1, that is no vomits or tiredness.

      Yes. Uneventful is the best kind of chemo cycle.

      Good luck.

        back again...
        cool time spend there, but the doctor told me off because i did not report the mild tinitus from day one, and delayed to do so on the grouns of "it is not that a big deal, i can only hear it when stressed, tired or complete silence and does not inhibid me in sleeping or any other activity..in fact he told me toreport him anything to the color of the urine!!

          Your doc is right. Report any problems when you first notice them. Even if there is nothing to be done about it your doc needs to know.

            again all was well...even the nurse entered the needle in the vain as hot knife in butter..nothing felt at all..
            blood test my whites were high, urine, calcium ok...no problem to continue the therapy...
            reds (hematocrite) were lowered but well into in the normal range but during cycle 1 they were over the normal range!!
            so one more day and then rest for two weeks
