So I am on day 3 after treatment and it has not been too bad. Yesterday was a bit tough and I had some pretty severe nausea. I only got sick once last night but today has just been a constant light state of nausea. I have been taking my meds more often to help with how I feel but they are not working the best. I am really hopeful that next week will be different because of Thanksgiving. Speaking of Thanksgiving just when I thought my taste couldn't get worse, it has. I still can't taste anything but now when I do eat anything it has a very metallic taste and everything just tastes bad. I find myself chewing a lot of gum to help with the taste because I even have the bad taste when I am not eating. I have read that using plastic utensils can help so I have started using those as well. 
I am not as tired but not feeling well makes me not want to do anything, so I rest a lot. As much as I hate knowing that I have to go to treatment every week it is kind of nice to know that every week I am one week closer to being done with all of this. I have 11 more treatments and I really hope to have it down to a science as far as how I will feel on which days so I can plan as much as possible. I have been doing a lot of online shopping for the holidays and birthdays we have coming up trying to stay on top of all of it. I did get a couple of fun packages in the mail this week (thank you Erin, Lana and Aunt Diane) they really put a smile on my face. I love the new beanies and the movies, which I will be saving for treatment. The fun beanies that my Aunt made will have to make an appearance in a Christmas picture for sure, they are so fun and the kids love them!Days like today I just feel blah. Not really motivated to do anything, I only hope that next Thursday I have more energy.
