My leukemia's back.

Rachel, you weird? Never - you are just as normal as me.

There he goes again. Owowowowowowowow my head . . . . .ohhh, the pain.

 

[sourland]

Good morning, Rachel.

are you OK?

 

[Bunnylady]

Ohhhhhhhh.

Why must you do that, Sour? You know what happens to me every time you try to put yourself and "normal" in the same sentence. My poor little brain tries to wrap itself around the idea and I wind up like . . .

 

[sourland]

Seriously

Catching up on sleep from the guy's visit. Didn't realise how poorly I slept while they were here at night, and there was no napping. So, some nice naps have been in the works today! Doing well otherwise, I almost feel someone threw a switch and I can drink easier and easily meet my fluid intake. Appetite is doing better, I think I'm going to talk about getting off one of the appetite stimulants here soon. Then again, day 30 is when they're supposed to start tapering the steroids, and those meds sure make you hungry. Maybe I'll just wait and see. Sure won't mind not having to inject myself with insulin! It was the weirdest thing last night, I totally balked at doing it. Hasn't really been an issue but for some reason it took a big act of will to inject myself. This am, back to no big thing. Weird, huh?

Not weird at all! I remember the same thing when I was giving myself Lovonox injections! And Ken has needed monthly B12 injections for his pernicious anemia for 8 years now and he still won't do it himself. There's just something about looking at that needle day after day and suddenly thinking, "I don't want to do this!" Then you go ahead and get it over with, and don't have another problem for awhile.

Happy that you enjoyed your family visit, but worry when you overdo.

If this one is a duplicate, forgive me. I'm on my IPad, not my computer, so flipping through the previously posted photos is harder than on the 'puter.

I have had allergy shots twice a week for sixteen years... my husband gives them to me. I am usually very good about not screaming or anything, but sometimes he goes to give it to me and I jump out of the way.

I just can not take it then at that time for some reason I do not know why. (Cause it freaks me out man!) He gives me five minutes to unfreak and then it's a go.

Yeah, it's weird, But only to people not having needles jabbed into them on a regular basis.
Let me see 50 X 2 X 16= a whole bunch of shots. Actually, that is easy math: 1600 shots.
Hey, I have a good excuse to be twitchy.
so do you.

 

[sourland]

Good morning, Rachel.

 

[N F C]

Good morning Rachel,

Its nice to hear you can drink and eat easier now. Hope you can get off the shots soon.

 

[donrae]

Man, I sure don't want to be injecting as long as you, Jan! Jeepers!

Doing okay this am. Lots of hanging out, tossing crackers at the cute fat red squirrel that lives in the trees outside the door. Gotta have some sort of pet, I guess, even if no dogs.
