Ok here we go

So my chemo went well. Except for the iv part. When you insert the iv into the vein, go in further puncture the back wall of the vein then your patient yells ouch really loud and you are wondering why you are Not getting any flow back and the vein immediately swells, you missed you 22 year old. So she was gonna go at it again and I sweetly said no honey, you shot the good vein in that arm and I am getting a whopping hematoma go get someone else. so Peggy came and popped it in in 2 seconds, it is problem about every 5th time. The people that draw blood I have learned to tell them to use a butterfly, it isn't a smaller needle it is angled, and easier to insert they use it in infants. I used to work at a urologists office and i have filled my share of vacutainers. Why are these people so torturous. Just concentrate and go slow and be gentle. I look like a junkie, if I get pulled over they are going to think I am on something. Anyways, I feel good. They put steroid in the chemo mix so I will be jacked up for 2 days. Then I will crash. So glad to know I am anemic, that explains so much but i know it is going to take a couple of weeks to feel the iron.that is ok. Gotta get an Easter outfit. All we are having for Easter dinner is deviled eggs. No honey baked ham or lamb chops. Any suggestions? So sick of chicken, maybe Cornish game hens with apricot glaze or shrimp on the barbie. That would be quick. Ok that is it for now. Have a great day. More later.
