Side Effects

The worst side effect I had was fatigue. My treatment was on Thursday and the following Sunday I basically napped and rested the entire day. I was a little queasy and didn’t eat a lot the first few days. By Monday I started getting my energy back little by little. On Wednesday I started dealing with acid reflux and had to start taking Pepcid AC each day. By Thursday I had mouth sores. I used Biotene mouthwash for dry mouth, Healios (Amazon) and a salt/baking soda and water rinse to deal with this. They became painful and the Dr. called in “Magic Mouthwash” which helps numb the mouth so you can eat. By the weekend I finally started feeling more like myself and was able to go to a winery and birthday dinner for my daughter. I was thankful for the gorgeous weather and the time we had together. With the roller coaster of side effects and emotions you appreciate the good days when they come.
