I was expecting this to be fairly easy compared to the previous chemo's I've had. Shit, was I wrong. I've never felt this bad in my life.
It started with my mouth getting quite sore. I don't think it's ulcers but all around the edge of my tongue hurts constantly. It hurts me to drink a glass of water. My kidneys, ache constantly. Presumably because the cancer in them is being attacked, and this should reduce as the kidney function improves. I am having a blood test today along with another dose of Vinblastine that will tell me if there's been improvement in their function. Here's hoping...
My stomach lining has been ripped apart by the tablets I've been taking and I now have a constant stomach ache. It's terrible. I have pain killers but they don't seem to work so well on the stomach pain. Depending on my kidney function today I may be getting some liquid morphine.
I'll update later after the hospital visit...
