Toni was my nurse again. I was glad because I remembered to bring one of my buttons for her. Yeah! Another Team SHAY member!
I have been being brave and not wearing my hat out lately so I sported my new hair(do) to the Infusion Center today for the 1st time. I am always surprised that people love it. Maybe they are just being polite {cuz it's still a little short for me} BUT hey! it's hair so I can't complain! LOL Happy day at the RMCC.
Well, it was until.... I got poked- ONCE, TWICE, THREE, nope... FOUR freakin' times! Toni tried it twice then another nurse tried it twice as well. Poopy little uncooperative veins!!! I have learned to deal with needles but I still can't stand to watch them go in. And sitting and being poked a zillion times almost made me want to vomit. Oh well! At least it was 4 and not 40, right???
It took so long to get the IV started that by the time we got it all situated, my Herceptin was ready. [That never happens btw] So even with the ouchies, it was my shortest visit on record. Way to go, Toni!
I was in a group room today but it was very quiet. A couple ladies were sleeping, others whispered, some were only there for a couple of minutes. It was a pretty peaceful day. I got a lot of blogging done! I actually teased Toni because my blood pressure was a little low at the end and I blamed it on the calmness of the room. LOL This must have been the Yoga room and the other one is the Zumba room. (HaHa- now I even have Work-out Humor. I told you... LiveSTRONG has made me a freak!)
One last little story. One of the ladies that came in and out of our Yoga room quickly was also a Breast Cancer Survivor. She had the "look". You know- bald, beautiful and wearing pink! LOL We
OK... maybe I can whine just a little for my hand???
This is what it looked like a week later-- OUCH!
