12/22 Evening Update

I had my Neulasta shot at 2:30 this afternoon and it’s staring to hit me. I call this time going into the pressure cooker. Right now my neck muscles are sore right where they attach to the base of my skull. I’m also getting some muscle spasm in my calves.

I took 600 mg of ibuprophen in an attempt to head off the anticipated pain. I also took one of my Kytrils in case the ibuprophen upsets my already uneasy stomach. Actually my stomach wasn’t doing to badly tonight.

The taste of food is still reducing my calorie consumption. The Vorlon Wife cooked up some asparagus and reheated some Bob Evans mashed potatoes we bought other day. The mashed potatoes tasted OK and so did the asparagus. We also had some left over chicken. The chicken wasn’t too bad, but I thought it would be better with some barbecue sauce on it. Bad move. After I put barbecue sauce on it, I found it inedible.

I will be going to bed early tonight.
