IV Fluids to start off the week.

Back to work early this morning feeling wiped out but determined to stay.  I saw a couple of patients in morning clinic and then walked into my Medical Oncologist who asked me how I was feeling.  I was honest, I didn't feel too great but I felt like I could make it through the day.  Well, I guess I looked worse than I felt; he marched me right over to Outpatient Chemo and ordered me a liter of fluids and some IV Zofran.  I got the fluids over a few hours and slept most of the time, I did feel better afterwards but I still can't shake this run down feeling.  I hate not feeling like myself!:(

I know my parents and a lot of other people probably think I feel so poorly because I overdid it last Friday by going to the Iron Bowl, well, I disagree!  I had all of Saturday to recuperate and honestly, I think that this is the way I would have felt no matter what.

I feel so fat and heavy right now but can't stop from eating all the fatty comfort foods that make my stomach feel better.  With my taste buds acting up, I find the sugary, salty, fatty and carb loaded foods agreeing with me.  Oh, woe is me...the things that I have to worry about!  I guess I shouldn't complain, when else will I have an excuse to gain weight?!
