I am lurching toward what is the end of this last cycle and I pricked my finger today to check my blood sugar (which was a bit lower after a walk of several blocks). I bled more than I thought I should.
It stopped eventually, but normally all I have to do is press it once with the Kleenex and it will stop bleeding. That was me before chemo.
I have once or twice had a bleeding problem during a chemo cycle. They talk about low blood platelets but it's almost alarming to have physical evidence of it.
My most serious complaint this week is that I am tired a lot. Like now. Or when I'm working. It's why I don't want to go to the store this afternoon. I don't like to drive tired.
Although my stomach is sometimes upset, it's good most of the day and only requires drugs at night.
And I keep reminding myself - this does have an end.
