Week 9 update.

This last week I was put on antibiotics for a skin infection that is like a rash/acne on my scalp. I can’t wear my wig much until it clears.

My hemoglobin is lower and my white blood cell count and neutrophil count tanked again. More injections this week. The exhaustion is crazy, some days I need a nap after a 30 min conversation.

Oh and Fun fact: chemo shuts down your ovaries. I’m now in menopause. Any tips for hot flashes and night sweats?

I’m still staying positive but I definitely get frustrated. It’s frustrating to not be able to do your regular things (like going upstairs and not getting winded). This too shall pass.
