11/14 Morning Update

The pain is mostly gone save for the occasional stab here and there – usually in the back or leg joint. I feel tired but not exhausted. I was able to jog/walk two miles this morning with about half the distance at a very slow jog.

It occurred to me this morning that if the chemo seems to be slowing down the processes in my body, it would also likely slow down my regaining my aerobic capacity. Well no one said it was going to be easy.

My fingers and feet are getting numb again. That’s an expected side effect of the chemo. It gives a little weird sensation walking and jogging.

I plan to go to the office today. My productivity won’t be super, but I’ll get something done. At the office, I have a wireless headset I use. It actually makes talking on for phone more effortless than holding the phone up to my ear. I’ve had it for about six months and find it a huge convenience.
