... is not much of a vacation, lately.
I'm tired almost all of the time, and don't feel quite right. About two or three hours after treatment, I pretty much have to take a nap if I plan to function at all for the rest of the day. This then, of course, messes up my night time sleeping schedule. In the past two weeks, I don't think I've slept a whole night through. Dr. Uhm gave me some AmbienCR today, so we'll give that a shot and see if it helps.
I survived the first of many blood draws last Tuesday. Only a little hyperventilating and face spasms.
I was more than happy to take off Friday morning after treatment to go home and meet Nate there. That night we went out to dinner at Mama Maria's (YUM!) with my cousin Sasha, her husband Jason, and of course my favorite little guy Owen. He was pretty humorous throughout dinner, and it was really nice just to hang out!
Saturday, Nate took me to Treasure Island for my FIRST casino experience. It went quite well for me! I won $77 on slot machines. That's good enough for me :) After a stop in Roberts to see friends and little Ms. Lyla, we spent the night in River Falls hanging out with Nate's friends.
My hair is falling out my the handfulls, but there aren't any definite bald spots yet, so I'm not really sure where all the hair is coming from!
I definitely was not ready to come back to Rochester on Monday. I'm getting really sick of having to be here. And we're only 1/2 way done.... bleh.
