Finally come on Friday I started my chemo treatment. The treatment involved being hooked up to the liquid for 2 hours a day and that's about it.
Before the first treatment I was a little nervous since you don't really know how your body will react. The nurses gave me some drugs which would prevent nausea then the drip started. To be honest I didn't feel any different with it going in so after 2 hours I felt fine.
I'm happy to report that I have had no side effects to the chemo at the moment. The only thing which was different was I could feel my spleen bubbling on Saturday and it was very uncomfortable. After speaking to the doctors they told me my spleen was the size of a football and normally it can't be felt. But mine could be felt hence why I've had so many medical students pushing my stomach. The chemo was popping all the hairy cell nodes which are in my spleen so that would have been the bubbling. Wow the wonders of modern medicine.
