Day -5!!!
 
HELLO ALL!!
TONIGHT IS MY SECOND NIGHT IN THE HOSPITAL. I WAS ADMITTED YESTERDAY. I GOT MY CENTRAL LINE PUT IN AND STARTED MY CHEMO. FLUDARABINE. I'LL BE ON THAT ALL FIVE DAYS AND IN ADDITION TO THAT. ON SUNDAY I START ANOTHER CHEMO MED FOR THE LAST TWO DAYS. BUSULFAN.

THEY HAVE GIVEN ME A MOUTHWASH TO RINSE WITH 3 TIMES A DAY. CHLORHEXIDINE AND IT GIVES ME REALLY DRY MOUTH. I'M STILL NOT ON ANY MEDS AT THE MOMENT. JUST FLUIDS RUNNING AT A HIGH RATE, WHICH CAUSES ME TO RUN BACK N FORTH TO THE BATHROOM.:rolleyes: BUT DOC SAYS ALL THE PILLS WILL START DAY BEFORE TRANSPLANT. BUT SO FAR SO GOOD. NO EFFECTS FROM CHEMO YET. DOC SAYS MAY TAKE UP TO A WEEK FOR THAT. SO FOR NOW. I'M JUST TAKING IT EASY.

Good luck, Kamara.

How much does your family get to be with you?
