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. 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.
