Day 10 after chemo began

I'm still doing well, and not disliking my Protective Environment. It gives me some peace of mind. After 5 days of chemo, Idarubicine and Ara-C, they are watching me for any bruises, bleeding , etc. because my counts are down, especially my platelets, I'm getting my 4th bag of platelets and 6th bag of RBC in the last 10 days.
I actually did all me exercises today (from physical therapy) except pedaling 15 min. I have 8 more min of that for later.
I must be tolerating chemo well, just slight waves of nausea and diarrhea, that they have kept in check.
Still thankful for the reprieve Vidaza gave me, it was a wonderful year!
Loretta
