I don't feel much like writing right now, but I wanted to share this short update:
Chemo #6 was last Tuesday, and although the nausea was less intense than in round 5, I'm still having occasional episodes of queasiness (mainly scent-related again). But that was it - the last round! We're now back to the part of the game where we don't really know what's happening, so that's a little tough. But I have a PET scan scheduled for the 13th and we should have a better idea of the future once I see my doctor again afterwards.
Regardless of what comes next, making it to this point is something to celebrate, though I'm not sure it has really sunk in yet. We've come a long way - I can't believe that it's actually been 5 months already. I have started to feel a lot better in the last couple days and I'm very excited at the prospect of actually getting to feel good for more than a week. And I'm sure that I'll be more excited in two weeks when I don't have to go back in for another treatment!
So for now, we'll just try to enjoy a bit of a break.
