I did not have a very good sleep last night. My mouth was sore and all 3 girls were in the bed with us. I couldn't even spread my legs straight and every time I tried to it would wake me up and I would remember that my mouth was hurting. It was a dull pain so I opted to stay in bed (lazy) then to get up and use the gargle.
I had a feeling that I couldn't be so lucky to have no chemo symptoms. My mouth is painful now. The gargle liquid that Ramon picked up for me yesterday at the pharmacy has been a relief. I have used it about 4 times since I have woken up. The lidocaine in the mixture makes my mouth tingly and numb as if I just came home from some dentist procedure - but it is better than the pain. The nurse assured me that the mouth heals very quickly and that this should last no more than 5 days at the most. I guess it could be worse.
My dad, the girls and I went to breakfast. That was nice. I had a bagel with cream cheese and it seemed to agree with my mouth and my stomach very nicely. I think the bland foods are best.
The new PRICE IS RIGHT debuts today so I am waiting to watch it. I will update later today if anything changes.
68 days until I am 1/2 way done. That seems like a manageable number?!
