Yesterday Ramon gave me my 4th shot of Neupogen (1 more remaining) and I was awaken at around 11pm with this weird sensation in my pelvic bone (lower back). I wouldn't call it pain but I think it was associated with the shot. Well, maybe dull pain. I was very uncomfortable and unable to find a comfortable position to fall back asleep in. They say that if you are going to feel the effects of the shot it usually starts in your flat bones and the pelvis is the biggest of the flat bones. I just knew that's what it was. I took 2 Tylenol PM's and strapped the warning pad to my lower back and slept like a baby the rest of the night. Thank goodness! I don't think I could've handled another bad sleep night.
Otherwise there was not much to post about for yesterday. Chemo#3 is in 5 days. I hope to have a GOOD 5 days before I begin to feel all my symptoms again. Having a good week is so important, mentally and physically, so that you can build up the stamina to go through the process all over again.
Cheers! :-)
