I thought that all was fine last night and even called my mother and some close friends. That all changed about 9 when I got to shaking so bad I thought that I would break my teeth. At 9:30 I went to bed. At 10 Patti took my temperature and it was 104. We called the doctor and he said to ride it out. About 12:30 the fever broke and I woke up freezing with wet sheets, blankets, me, clothes, everything. After drying off and adding some blankets under and over me to keep Patti sleeping, I slept very well.
Today they inserted a pic line into my left arm. So much for taking my blood pressure there also. When they give me the interferon and the bag to hydrate me it is so cold as it now goes almost directly to my heart. I have a "cancer quilt" but that did not seem to do much good. Anyways, got my 39,200,000 units today of cells and will continue getting them for 17 more. They say the flu symptoms will lessen as time goes on, but I have not hit the bad point yet.
Pray for me as my worse time is from 6 to 12 PM. I can honestly say I can see why some people would not be able to do this. Imagine the flu everyday for a year. That is what this program is all about. High fevers, chills but so far nothing else. The more water I drink the easier it goes, but that means 20 trips to the bathroom or more each day. God made me tough and tough I will be for his sake and mine.
