    Day 4 Carboplatin

    Woke up at 5:30 am with throbbing around my back and hips, starting to feel a bit more normal though, day 3 was the roughest so far.

    No headache or nausea this morning, just the aches from the Neulesta bone factory crew.

    I'll get a blood draw later today and then again day after tomorrow for a visit on Thursday to check my blood counts.

    I think I'll be doing the bi-weekly blood draws for the next 3 weeks.

    Keep on standing Charlie! Think that, after the end of your carboplatin round, everything will come back normal!

    Feeling rough today

    Just a lot of general feeling of tiredness today, feels a lot like some big guys worked me over in the alley last night. Hope to get back up to speed soon....

    It's certainly nothing by comparison to full strength chemo and I am glad to be finishing this walk!
