After effects

For some reason I had it in my head that as soon as I was done with chemo, everything would feel great. Not so much. It was much worse this time than the previous two rounds. I feel much more toxic. My mouth has been pretty tore up, and I've had pretty severe stomach aches and headaches. I have also been very weak. I am getting a bit stronger now, but for a couple of days, I could barely hold myself up on my legs.

I had been told that the 3rd round is the worst, but I didn't realize it would be this difficult. I am still bolstered with knowing that it is the last of it, and just have to accept that it will take a while to heal. My doctor had originally said a month or two after treatment ended, but I imagined it would be sooner. Guess he knew what he was talking about :)
