AC 3 and AC 4

Well in the grand scheme of things AC wasn't too bad.  None of the tummy troubles that I had with AC 2.  The nurse recommended senakot and it worked.  I was tired, but I was out Christmas shopping a week later and feeling normal.  I felt great for Christmas.  

With that being said AC 4 has knocked me on my ass.  No other way to put it.  I am not throwing up, but I do have waves a nausea.  Compezine helps during the day, and I have been taking Ativan at night.  I am usually up by four to take more Ativan.   I also have been taking senakot to help combat the constipation that they anti nausea drugs cause.

I slept in the car on the way home Thursday, I dozed with Mikey on Friday, I dosed most of the day Saturday, and I took a good three hour nap this afternoon, and quite frankly I am still tired.  I did managed a load of laundry, and dishes, and made dinner today.  Needless to say I am tired of being tired.

No period this month either.  Memory loss has set it.  I can't remember stuff from one minute to the next.  Emotionally I am okay, not great, but okay.  It's hard when you just want your normal back, but know that it is a long term goal.
