A pretty good day altogether, although I can get tired and a headache when I work a bit more than I should.
I am into the 10-14 day period from my last infusion where my white cell count will have dropped and I still feel pretty good.
Naturally, I went to whole foods with Mary to see if I could pick anything up. I am in the "pleasantly coasting along" period of this until Wednesday February 10th when once again I will be infused via my port and with a lumbar puncture.
But that's a week and a half away and I'm still euphoric about being over the constipation.
Although the infusion itself isn't too painful, I still grip the pillow in the lumbar puncture and clasp my eyes like I'm about to lean over a precipice. The next few days after the infusion are a feast of gut wrenching cramps and defecations that leave me bleary eyed and joylessly asking myself when it will be over.
But I don't have to worry about that now, I'm going to have a good time.
