The chemo is finally effecting Gary. It's not that it didn't before, he would feel a little weak, especially around day 9, but the new side effects are beginning at day one. The bad taste in the mouth starts immediately and he assumes that is from the prednisone. Our daughter made hard candies in different flavors, and that seems to be the only thing that helps. He says that it immediately takes the bad taste away.
At day two the diarrhea hit and the nausea.
We are now at day three and he is still sleeping, so I have no idea what to expect.
He will have to go in to the NIH for the chemo bag change today as he will for a total of 5 days.
