I am so excited about going to Chicago today that sleep was sparse last night - up & down!! Just like my white blood count! Doc tells me yesterday that my white count fell down this time below 2. So we watch and wait.......I should find out more about it on Monday when we test again.
I woke up the other day with my mouth on fire....one of the side effects of the interferon is sores & sensitivity in your mouth and throat. It feels so weird to walk around feeling like you just took a big swig of Tabasco Sauce! I don't have much for taste buds at the moment either. I have burning from my lips all the way down to the bottom of my throat even when swallowing water.....the only thing that makes it feel better is ice-cream :) I know - what an excuse huh? My doctor had me go to the pharmacy yesterday to pick up this concoction of medications that numb the mouth and throat as well as help them heal, I swish and swallow three times a day - the only problem with it is it only numbs for about 30 minutes. But boy do I love those 30 minutes :).
I head out to Chicago today to go to my companies convention! I am so excited to see everyone again!
