Yesterday, Tuesday, July 5 I had side effects, day 6 after the chemo session.
Stomach hurt, diarrhea, tired. I finally
took immodium and ondansetron and by evening felt much better. Today I feel
back to normal. I don’t like those days much but I have to learn to roll with
them. After two meals of basically toast and apple sauce, I had a full meal in
the evening. I suspect that what
triggered the attack was all the sugar I ingested on July 4 at the neighborhood
party—two bottles of soft drink, two pieces of very rich cake. Live and learn.
I have begun acupuncture to control the side effects,
stomach and lower gi issues. I was encouraged by the acupuncturist’s
professional approach and I felt good after the session. These sessions will go
on weekly and we will see how they go. All I have ever heard from people who
have done acupuncture is good things.
