I started the 5 days on / 28 days off 300mg Chemo cycle on Sunday night. Monday went great, I was a little foggy, but was able to work all day with little problem. Tuesday I was feeling pretty much the same. Today it hit me. I woke up at 5 am with a screaming headache, took 4 ibuprofen and tried to get back to sleep. I couldn't, and figured that I would feel better keeping busy at work. Headache would not go away. I went home at 11, took a norco and laid down. At 4pm I still have a severe headache and took some Tylenol. No luck. I feel like I got whacked in the head with a 2x4 or have a severe hangover....but just in my head. My stomach feels fine and my body is just a little sore.
Taking the Chemo pills Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday night I was a little anxious. Its hard to take these pills when you know they make you feel miserable. Taking them tonight and tomorrow is going to be really hard.
I wonder how long into the '28 days off' it is going to take for me to feel better. Please leave a comment if you have any experience here. I hope its not 27 days!
